For nearly the past 12 years I’ve worked in a marketing agency to deliver on-time, on-budget, smart creative. Whether it’s branding, web or campaigns, I work closely with fellow team members and creative directors to ensure that the design is on brand and on strategy. From concept sketches, client presentations, all the way to on-site trade show booth setup, I do what it takes to earn the respect of my colleagues and build relationships with our clients.

A little about me

I love solving problems. That is my passion.

With every project, there’s a problem to solve. Starting with the “why”, things start to fall into place from there. It’s not about pretty, it’s about what it is that’s being communicated and how is it being experienced. Often the wheel doesn’t need to be reinvented, it’s the angle of attack that needs to be reexamined. Looking back helps as a guide moving forward. Listening is key, understanding the ask and where it came from helps deliver the better solution. And always find room for improvement, it can always be better.
