About

As Exhibit Designer at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum I work with an expert group to interpret the history of the game, and its ties to our society, for a diverse visitorship of nearly 400,000 people per year.

At the Square Office I work to design beautiful things for the things that matter. With over ten years of major-market experience, I use word, image and form to develop clear understanding of complex ideas - building narratives for clients of local, national and international reputation.
