Good work comes from good ideas. I believe in old-school think-first art direction. Even though I work with web design nearly every day, I hold a torch for ink applied to paper in an artful manner.I've worked in the industry for about 15 years now, from setting newspaper type to art directing magazines, stripping film and burning plates to directing creative in advertising agencies, with many stops between. I've had ink under my fingernails and my head in the clouds.I also believe that my industry can lead the way in environmental responsibility, and I work tirelessly to that end.Specialties: Art direction and design with special emphasis on brand development, design for print and web, prepress engineering and file prep, brutal honesty, vendor management, tactical campaign implementation, tattoos.
