I have been focused on only doing my fine artwork and prints since 2012. As a former professional graphic designer I was also designing books and guiding authors through the process of making a work publishable. I am now fully working as a fine artist, breaking new ground by using digital photo-montage as my sole medium. My work is a merger of fine arts from the past with using the computer as my brush and canvas. Ultimately I am interested in selling my archival quality giclee prints, internationally.

Framework Inc. developed enterprise level software for the top 10 U.S. mortgage firms. The product developed was LendWare, a web-based mortgage processing software. I contributed directly to the success and rapid growth of the company’s size and assets. I assisted the product strategy and I designed a highly technical GUI (Graphic User Interface) for end-to-end financial process in 2002. The html-based software system reduced the time that financial product took to process from 6 weeks to 3 days and reduced the costs of previous methods by half. I successfully promoted this through client power point presentations, class collateral and the branding I developed, and increased the value of the product and the company, later sold to Bank of America in 2003
