My approach to my work comes from the belief that great design is the product of collaboration, imagination, craftsmanship, skill and a healthy relationship with coffee. Heavily driven by a deep need to create, I draw inspiration for my work from my many adventures, travels and sometimes near-death experiences.
10+ years of experience in creative development, leadership and promotional campaigns. Proven ability to conduct creative analysis and design best-fit solutions for multi faceted campaigns including web and print design, digital photo manipulation, branding, interactive media and immersive experiences. For the most part I'm a self-taught designer, always looking to jump into any project with a good attitude, a full box of fish crackers, music and a can-do approach.
I have worked at agencies, amusement parks, firms, zoos, in-houses and out-houses, but nothing makes me smile more than working on developing creative, engaging and imaginative ideas.
In my spare time when I'm not participating in full-contact origami, climbing mountains or chasing down a dream, I enjoy being outdoors, listening to music, traveling and engaging in activities that challenge me. I'm fluent in Spanish and if called upon I can probably fake a few other languages. Take a look at my work and let's find a way to work and melt a few ideas together.
