I have over 20 years of experience working as a designer, art director and creative director. I think "great" design means effective design. Effective design accomplishes a client's goals. It makes the ad campaign click. It can turn a website visitor into a website customer. Effective, compelling and original design helps connect people with the information they need.

Where do I fit in? I design websites that deliver focused and satisfying user experiences. I create ad campaigns, brochures, direct mail pieces and other materials that help my clients communicate with clarity, purpose and impact. I design logos and visual identities that help build brands, send the right message and set my clients apart from their competition.

I have the leadership skills and project management experience it takes to lead a design team, and I enjoy collaboration. That said, I’m also comfortable tackling a project myself, working independently, and taking something from initial concept right through to completion. Either way, going from a blank piece of paper to the finished product—something a client can use to achieve their goals—is extremely rewarding.
