I am a strategy driven Creative Director that values initiative, hard work, collaboration, and the power of a well crafted brand. Design can’t rely on good looks alone. It needs to be backed up with research, measured by clearly defined goals, and consistently tied to a smart strategy. As an industry veteran I have worked on identity, brand, packaging, digital marketing, event design, print and digital collateral, promotional design, and overall project management for clients large and small. Running a small studio allows me to be passionate about the clients I have and the work I create. This passion, paired with experience, enables me to produce smart, effective solutions for companies of all kinds and sizes. Whether that's scaling up to develop a new brand for an emerging market, or crafting a economical rebrand for a boutique assignment.My commitment to excellence in a field I genuinely enjoy creates lasting client relationships, creative with integrity, and the satisfaction of a job well done.
