12 years experience
Twelve years of experience with Creative Direction, UI/UX & Visual Design, Art Direction, and Illustration. University of Minnesota School of Design grad. Interned at FALLON in Minneapolis, then went on to join the digital team at PERISCOPE ad agency.
Packed up and moved to New York in 2009 in search of new agencies, bigger clients, and different opportunities to help me continue growing as a designer. Worked at small design shops such as Mouth and Translation, freelanced at large advertising and PR agencies such as Big Spaceship and PMKBNC, designed social media content at shops such as Big Fuel and Vayner Media, managed design teams at large scale media corporations such as Viacom Media Networks, and have consulted and done full stack design work for countless New York based start ups. Most recently in New York, I have been working as a freelance Creative for PepsiCo doing everything from Pepsi + NHL commercials to creation of Social Media content for Brisk IceTea, Mountain Dew, Pure Leaf, and Pepsi. Since the pandemic I have worked for a Baltimore based agency doing UI/UX & Visual Design called Mindgrub.
Through all these different working experiences and brands interacted with I have built a wonderful network of talented friends, amazing colleagues, and best practices to make me into one hell of an efficient, positive thinking, well rounded bad ass creator of all the things.
Do you need branding and a logo for a new company from scratch? Let’s get the process started. Need a storyboard for a video you need to shoot for social content? I can do that. Is the UI just not working on your product and we need some new wireframe options or a new prototype mocked up stat? Let me fire up Figma. Need a new investor deck to try and scrape up more funding? Boom I’m on it. Need a fresh brain to jump in on a brainstorm session or help lead your design team to a new inspiring place?
I am looking for a good team to join. I want to work with other creative individuals who all have the same goal of creating amazing work we can be proud of. I want to have the opportunity to mentor others but also find a Yoda of my own to push my skills and abilities further.
