About

I bring over ten years of experience in branding, environmental design, print and web. I'm interested in the people behind the company and what it represents - not just typeface and color - without meaning. I'm looking for a company that combines both strategy and design to make strong brands which I strongly feel you do. I love the challenge of experimenting in many different mediums.

I truly can not say what my favorite type of design is, since for me design is about solving a problem. The solution could be a campaign, a website, packaging or signage.
