A creative leader in product design, art production, marketing, and creative strategy for over +13 years. I started my career in freelance, then as a Junior Designer in product marketing at a wholesome food grocery store, and took on a lead role as an Associate Art Director in education technology. My direct impact across these industries number in the thousands of daily shopping customers to over nearly 7 million online students annually.

 

I am skilled in streamlining corporate workflows, having a process-oriented focus in creative departments, collaborating in cross-functional teams, making decisions and owning them while keeping some lightheartedness during many of those tight situations. What can I offer? Transforming complex ideas into compelling designs, delivering with effective storytelling, making it accessible, affordably packaged.

 

I continue to feed into my growth as a commissioned artist, with successful branding redesigns for small businesses in the US, creating professional-level custom paint projects and some of the highest-quality traditional portraiture, or so i've been told. I also stay healthy playing Disc Golf and create art for sanctioned PDGA Disc Golf tournaments around the country with continued growth year-over-year. I love a challenge that connects with people through art and design, and the scope of my work offers plenty!

 

I believe art and innovative design should be created by people, and I do my best to serve the common person towards an authentic human-to-human experience. While I am an artist that is curious about AI, the best will know how to still do it with their own hands, and know the consequences of taking shortcuts.

 

I invite you to check out my portfolio, maybe even share it with your family and friends. Your support helps drive me through all the challenges involved in this career. It is only a glimpse of my repertoire, but I am excited to show you more!

​

Thank you.
