I love designing and maintaining strong brands, and I enjoy taking concepts from idea to implementation in both 2D and 3D environments. I work DTP-ready, which saves time, and I check copy as I go. My experience spans logo design, print and social media, annual reports, retail branding (signage, environmental design, menus, etc.), packaging design, designing and writing technical branding manuals, magazine layout (including covers), photo retouching, overlays, finished art, BTL advertising, presentations, MsOffice templates, website design, and interactive PDFs. I am rarely short of ideas and I thrive on collaboration, feedback, and driving positive change in my work.
