Since 1994 I have been working in the graphic arts field, finding creative solutions for marketing and advertising initiatives. When I was a New Media Designer at RES Exhibits, I enjoyed designing interactive products for touch-screens, Microsoft Surface Tables and iPads. I also produced large format prints printed on fabric and other substrates for trade show booths. A few of the clients I worked with include Bushnell, Bausch and Lomb, Northrop Grumman, World Fuel, and Huntington Ingalls Shipbuilding.At my previous position I worked as an Art Director specializing in print and interactive integrated campaigns for the direct marketing realm at Catalyst Direct. Throughout my career, I have always enjoyed the challenge and opportunity new technology has to offer, and have had my hands in the multiple communication channels available.At Catalyst Direct, my client roster included Valvoline Instant Oil Change, Goodyear, Kodak, Xiekon, Scott's LawnCare, United Way, HSBC, Capital One, and the Ad Council to name a few that I was proud to be a part of. Along with my professional career, I'm an active Board Member for ArtPeace, Inc., where I also serve as the chairman of the Marketing Committee. ArtPeace is a great organization that delivers the combination of art and technology with an educational and entrepreneurial spin to under-served youth of the greater Rochester area.Outside of work, I'm a father with 3 wonderful children. I enjoy boating and fishing, biking, camping, and managing my adult ice hockey team.Specialties: I'm a problem solver, team player, and I'm passionate about my work. I enjoy trying out new software and providing creative solutions. I like teaching others what I know, and collaborating with those with skill sets outside of my knowledge base.Software: Adobe Creative Cloud (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere, After Effects, Acrobat, Flash and Dreamweaver), 3DStudio Max, and I frequently use both Windows and Mac OS.
