“Syles come and go.
Good design is a language, not a style.”
—Massimo Vignelli
Experience
I’m a creative professional with extensive experience in the advertising and marketing industry. I gained my experience working for Chicago ad agencies such as JWT, FCB, DDB and Ogilvy. I have a love of the craft of design and visual storytelling. I’m inspired by clean, minimalist design. I’m passionate about elevating the essence of a brand to engage, communicate and inspire. I specialize in art direction, branding, collaboration and strategic design solutions. I’ve produced digital, print and cross-channel marketing for start ups, non-profits, consulting firms, fortune 100 and corporations. I’ve created impactful work in several industries: automotive, beverage, education, financial, healthcare, hospitality, municipality, news, pharmaceutical, publishing, real estate, technology, tourism and wellness.
Expertise
I have expertise in all phases of a project from beginning to execution of pixel perfect artwork: Creative kick-off, ideation, design, presenting, iterations and execution. I’m adept at managing multiple projects and creating engaging designs under tight deadlines. I’m agile and have collaborated with marketing, creative and sales teams. I’ve led teams of designers and value relationship building and leaning in with a positive attitude. I’m adaptable, curious, fun and always looking to raise the bar.
