I am a designer, web developer, typographer, and art director with an exceptional range of hands-on experience, from web design and typography to print and branding. Within three short years of starting my professional design career I have developed a broad index of creative work, taught college level design at a major university, been published in respective trade magazines, and co-lead a ground-breaking grassroots event Phoenix Design Week.
While specializing in web and typographic design for the music, film, and fashion industries, I have been exposed to some of the world's most influential brands, including AOL, Proctor & Gamble, T-Mobile, Toyota, Warner Brothers, and Rolling Stone Magazine. I produce the highest quality of creative output for massive international markets in multiple languages and strategies; I work quickly and efficiently, have an exceptional eye for detail and a passion for typography and great design.
As a freelance designer, I work with companies with smart business practices. I aim to incorporate my core values of authenticity, creativity, transparency, and utility into everything I do. Get in contact with me to see how I can help you with your start-up or existing brand project.
Currently, I serve on the board as the Design Implementation Director for Phoenix Design Week.
Phoenix Design Week is a collaboration of the design community in Phoenix, Arizona. It includes a variety of speakers, exhibitions, open houses, workshops, presentations, activities, happy hours, films and other creative community-growth oriented events. It has been a massive success since it’s inception in 2009. We are currently gearing up for another spectacular event for 2010!
I have had the honor of teaching college graphic design courses at the ASU innovative School of Design.
My teaching approach is to let the student decide the outcome, while my purpose is to guide their own self discoveries in visual problem solving while strengthening their design vocabulary and rhetoric. The experiences have been unmatched, and I hope to continue educating more.
