about me
I’m a resourceful, self-motivated, and hands-on creative director & designer, looking to produce work of appeal, purpose, and relevance.
The way I work:
Good design is good business. Start with a compelling single-minded idea– and build from there.
My job isn’t my title, it is the responsibilities I have to clients, my co-workers, and the results we produce– Together.
Do my best to listen as much as talk.
A strong work ethic gives me purpose. No big ego here.
