I believe that graphic design has the distinguished ability to emotionally engage, inform and
uplift viewers. It can (and should) effect positive change in our world. With that understanding,
I strive to produce work that is relevant to those who interact with it — beautiful on the surface
and beyond.
I am a designer who has an attentive commitment to both concept and execution, a devotion
to detail, and a desire to use my talents for good.
Seeking to apply a positive philosophy to the workaday world, I aim to meld professional
diligence with creative curiosity. I understand that design's worth is not purely in theory
— nor in mere adherence to a brief — but in the full engagement with the client
and an unmitigated commitment to the end-user.
My work takes a typographic approach to the problem solving process while traversing the
territories between branding, print and interactive design. Combining my experience concepting,
managing and executing projects, I am continually seeking to grow in my working knowledge
and creative exposure.
Currently I am pursuing a transition in employment in New York City. My goal is to contribute
to a design agency which values an in-depth and cohesive working process — one marked by
research, exploration and refinement.
