Available to hire
I’m a seasoned designer and branding specialist with over 20 years of experience, bringing expertise across graphic design, exhibit design, brand development, creative proposals, 3D environments, industrial design, marketing, and advertising. I have a proven track record translating ideas into impactful branding campaigns and a diverse portfolio spanning integrated marketing, immersive 3D environments, signage, and brand development. My approach blends creativity with practicality to deliver meaningful visuals and effective campaigns.
Beyond design, I’m a musician and founder of Vibe Guitars, where I design and build custom electric guitars. I’ve released several independent music projects and love writing, performing, and connecting with live audiences. Originally from Toronto and now based in New Brunswick, I’ve spent a career building brands and experiences that resonate—design is more than a profession; it’s a lifelong passion.
