Before you read this, please understand I'm actually a humble person. I'm not boasting - honest.As a brand champion, graphic designer and creative director for both small businesses and larger companies, I’ve managed myself, a staff of eight, and over twenty clients and vendors simultaneously — along the way learning the difference between a flat sheet and a flat-rate; between pixels and points; between pennies and dollars.Though the industries I’ve worked with have varied — from high-tech to higher education, direct sales to direct-injection molding — one thing has remained a constant: understanding the brand, the competition and the audience. Every client and every project has helped strengthen my knowledge of branding and the print, web design and mail industries.
