Hi, and welcome to my site.  I currently live in Santa Barbara, California, where I develop logos, identities, websites and print pieces—such as brochures, collateral and packaging.  And like most creatives, it doesn't really stop there.  I draw a lot of inspiration from furniture and interior design, architecture, photography, illustration, typography, music and people.

While my portfolio mainly consists of the work I've done as a graphic designer, I'm also including various photography collections and furniture deigns I've created over the years.

Before landing on the west coast, I formally studied advertising and graphic design in the midwest.  Since graduating college in 1998 with honors, I've held design positions at Vivendi Universal Games, The Flavia Company, and multiple design firms located in Los Angles and Santa Barbara.  After Flavia, I stepped into an art director's position at Evans, Hardy + Young—a full service advertising agency.

I'm happy to say that I'm now officially open for business as a full-time freelance designer and available to take on projects of all sizes.  These can range from individual's looking to create an online presence, or an entire brand campaign for a new or existing company.  In addition, I'm available to work with local and national agencies seeking outside creative assistance.

Take a look around and if you feel we'd make a good fit, drop me a line.  I'm happy to hear about any project large or small.  I look forward to doing business with you.
