Art director. Designer. Branding consultant.You give me a problem, I will solve it. Heck, after over a decade of being a designer, that's what I've come to know creativity as ... finding the best solution to a problem. And, wow, this problem-solving thing has led me down a lot of unexpected paths. I've had experience in video production, web development, brand strategy, wayfinding, even mascot design (if that's even a thing).My main specialty, though, is hand-lettered logos and brand assets based on market research, consumer psychology, and cultural trends.So, currently I lead the design team at Martin Communications, supporting service-based clients in their branding and marketing, and building up a skilled group of team members to meet those needs. We partner with our clients to provide seamless creative services and hands-on optimization of their branding and marketing.I also work directly with select local businesses, bands, restaurants, and other small organizations to create spirited, thoughtful identities for their brands.Let's talk branding, marketing, and all things creative over an IPA or an espresso. Cheers.
