I’m an Art Director and Illustrator with a background leading creative teams and producing high-quality visual design across entertainment, tech, and themed environments. At The MAD Network, I direct a team or artists, shape visual narratives, and oversee a streamlined production pipeline while creating detailed digital maps for Dungeons & Dragons communities. Previously, as Art Director and Lead Artist at Echo Visuals, I designed and illustrated 200+ annual design packages, developed cohesive UI concepts for Samsung mobile devices, and managed company-wide marketing and publication workflows. I also bring experience from Walt Disney Imagineering, where I helped conceptualize installations, in-park décor, and signage adopted across multiple Disney properties. I stand out for combining strong art direction, hands-on illustration, technical versatility, and a talent for turning imaginative ideas into polished, immersive visuals.
