I’m an independent design director and collaborator with ~15 years of practical experience. Across those years, I have been fortunate to have worked with brands like Apple, Google, Beats, Fila, Alo, Nixon, Volcom, Red Bull, etc. etc.

While I’ve spent a (relatively) long time in the design world, I’ve pursued a path in which I've remained hands-on throughout. While I have experience managing teams, my current interest is more hands-on, and in synthesizing unique brand/art directions with thoughtful strategy. In general, I try to approach design with an intent focus on capturing a feeling that doesn't feel predictable, while offering tangible business solutions. This approach has resulted in several SOTD, a few SOTY awards, and often exceeding initial KPIs.

While the bulk of my work is in the interactive marketing and e-comm spaces,  I'm currently prioritizing branding opportunities– both as a freelance resource or as a brand partner. My experience and interests are go far broader into tangential fields.. I'm constantly exploring new forms/mediums of creative output as different needs arise– such as video production, music production, font design, 3D modeling, etc.– so I readily welcome a challenge.

Below is the career path I've taken to this point:
