At heart, I am a designer and a builder. For over 20 years, my passion has been bringing brands to life through thoughtful graphic design and functional, beautiful websites. While I’ve had the privilege of serving in executive roles like CMO, my favorite place to be is always in the sandbox—getting my hands dirty with typography, layouts, and code. I’ve always believed that great design shouldn't just look stunning; it needs to function flawlessly. Because I genuinely love both the artistic and the technical sides of the craft, I’ve spent my career sharpening a unique mix of skills. I'm just as happy custom-coding a responsive website from scratch as I am designing a complete brand identity or directing a national television commercial. For me, the joy is in the details, and my goal is simply to help brands tell their stories through clean, intentional visual design. Core Pillars of My Experience: Full-Cycle Web Development: I have built and maintained over 60 custom hand-coded and WordPress (Avada, Divi, Elementor, WooCommerce, Shopify and Google Sites) websites, specializing in SEO (GA4/MOZ), site speed optimization, and complex inventory management. Graphic Design & High-Volume Production: From conceptualizing 270-page print and digital product catalogs to designing high-stakes, 100+ pitch decks, I deliver premium graphic design at scale. My expertise spans advanced typography, strict brand alignment, and asset creation across digital, print, and social media ecosystems. Whether crafting thousands of targeted web graphics or engineering comprehensive multi-channel campaigns, I blend speed with meticulous visual artistry to elevate brand presence. Multimedia Storytelling: A veteran in photography and videography, I handle everything from scripting, interviews and filming to post-production in Adobe Premiere for national commercials and company interviews. Event & Media Logistics: I’ve orchestrated major presences at San Diego Comic Con, PAX East/West/South, Quakecon, CES, Mobile World Congress (MWC), TribalNet, NTTA, FETC, Fire Rescue International, Safer Buildings Coalition (SBC), managing everything from BOL logistics and sponsorships to on-site video production, lead generation, booth marketing and graphics creation. Technical Toolkit: Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects, Dreamweaver, Premiere), WordPress (Avada, Divi, Elementor, WooCommerce), HTML/PHP/CSS, Shopify, HubSpot CRM, Google Analytics (GA4), Google Tag Manager, MOZ, Mailchimp, Constant Contact, Sprout Social and Hootsuite.…At heart, I am a designer and a builder.
