A decade of professional experience
designing for direct and lifestyle marketing.
The flexibility to move from print to web
to sign design. The ability to target for
audiences of industries from home and
community builders to medical to various
services, providing personalized solutions
consistently across various media. A
wide range of fluency and familiarity
with industry standard software, and
the ability to learn new software and
techniques qu ick ly. So l id des ign
sensibility that can adapt to many
applications and purposes. This is some
of what I of fer as a visual designer.
I take my work seriously, I have a broad sense
of humor, and I’m constantly looking for
new approaches and ideas. Many graphic
designers find themselves too attached
to their work, however I realize that my
work is representative of my employer
and their client, not my own “artistic
vision”. Changes and modifications are
part of the process, ego should never
be a factor. I am versatile, dedicated
and easy to work with. I’m also available
for immediate hire.

Technical FactsNo purchased, pre-existing imaging was used in
the creation of this book. The crate on the cover
was built in Photoshop using pictures of my
porch. The puzzle was built up from a drawing of
a jigsaw puzzle in Illustrator and Photoshop, as
was this classified ad page. All samples shown
are my work, creative, copy and production.
