A Little More About Me

Make awesome stuff. Don't be a jerk in the process. That has always been my motto, anyway.

And over the course of 20+ years, I've been fortunate enough to do that with big and small agencies alike—from Sullivan Higdon & Sink and JNA with Fortune 500 brands, to independent design boutiques working with startups, even with global brands as Creative Director for an in-house agency.

During my years as a designer, I've created award-winning and integrated advertising campaigns across emerging channels, print, digital and social as well as leading re-branding and design efforts for large-scale, corporate identity systems. In working directly with clients, I seek to develop partnerships to deliver strategic and emotionally-resonant creative that also successfully achieves brand goals. While I have a personal focus on brand creation and the integration of brand with experience, I also have an extensive and broad background in marketing, from print to digital advertising and web-focused interactive content.
