As the lead designer of the re-organized AXO America brand the challenge was to pay homage to the companies hertiage while pushing the design, technology and image into the next phase. Attention to Graphics, print media, hard and soft apparel and the famous AXO brand of footwear were all part of the daily duties.

What an exciting time. Alpinestars was on the beginning of a huge growth swing when our paths crossed. What started as a contractual designer for hire relationship quickly turned into one of the best growing experiences of my career. Advertising, packaging, apparel design and especially footwear design and development consumed me. I loved it. Alpinestars thrived and has since grown from one 20 page catalog to a multi-million dollar Motor-sportswear giant. We were awarded patents, VOLVO Design awards, Editor's choice awards and more sporting championships that I can count.
