I'm a freelance designer/illustrator and a full time creative director working out of the DC Metro area.

I am passionate towards creating art and design that illustrates form, function, and delineates a specific purpose, whether it be for a business project or part of my regimen of experimental work.

I have built many valued relationships over the years, business and otherwise, and pride myself on building trust with clients and colleagues by sticking to a high standard of ethics, and by creating and producing products that successfully get the desired results for the businesses I serve.

Graphic Design, Layout, Traditional Illustration, Digital Illustration, Logo Design and Development, Branding and Identity Design, Print Media, Package Design, Displays, Signage, and Environmental graphics.
