Leveraging the knowledge of History to guide the Future

Proud to have lead the vision for ASC Design, Marketing and Fabrication. Under my leadership we renovated and created new studio space. Created a new "look and feel" for all Marketing materials and our new website. Created events like reintroduceding them to the North American International Auto Show and the global OEM Design community. ASC was a great challenge and I'm proud of the work we accomplished in my time there. Luxury Motorhomes, Event Trailers and Limousine up-fits for the world's premium automakers. We restored much of the pride that was ASC's strength. A great experience and a great company!
