Creative Director

My career spans more than 20 years as an art director/creative director working both in large multinational agencies and small local boutiques creating solutions for brands of all kinds.

I am a conceptually and strategically driven creative leader who approaches every problem with enthusiasm, thoughtful consideration, and patience.

I was educated at one of the top design schools in the world – Art Center College of Design in Pasadena California – graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 1996.

Industries I’ve worked with include healthcare, destination/place marketing, quick service restaurants, automotive, telecommunications and government organizations.
