who believe in your company’s ethos and

loyal clients.

over 15 years of experience, I have worked

on both domestic and international projects

and bring a wealth of design and brand

experience to every client relationship.

I specialize in brand solutions, but have

broad experience encompassing traditional

advertising and marketing solutions.

I am experienced and comfortable working

with all levels of clientèle, from large

corporations to start ups. My client list is

diverse, including the likes of Paramount,

Universal, Fox Home Entertainment, MTV,
