About

Solid, brand-idea-based creative director and designer: First we find the big idea within the brand, then we create customer experiences that celebrate that idea. Inspirational and driven leader: I have exacting standards and high expectations of my team members -- and I give them the support they need to make their best work shine through. Meaningful collaborator: With either groups or individuals I build the relationships necessary to develop creative work that is on strategy, visually striking, and effective. Engaging and motivating public speaker: Invited to speak at conferences, AIGA chapters and as a company guest across the nation -- always resulting in rave reviews.
