When I was 6 years old, I was reproducing magazine ads in tempera paint and creating my own newspaper with those little rubber ink letter sets. I’m fortunate enough to know what I’ve wanted to do from an early age, and I’ve been doing it in one form or another for over 20 years as both an in-house art director and running my own business as a consultant. My passion is to help social impact nonprofits and businesses develop and market their brands.

A Menu of Specialties

Utility
When you hire me, it’s plug-and-play. I can seamlessly engage in any environment and process, and need little ramp-up time to begin your project and deliver high-value results. 

Style
What’s the value of layout and composition if you don’t bring refinement, aesthetic appreciation and a quality eye to the mix?

Competence
I iterate, revise, finalize, and deliver on your timetable, with great communication, transparency, and execution.

Humor
Let’s face it, some days are real bears. If we didn’t laugh, we’d sob uncontrollably. And that doesn’t really help during launch, does it?

Integrity
Do what you say you’re going to do. Be accountable for your mistakes. Pinch hit. Take initiative. Change out the water filter when no one else will do it. 

Experience
To paraphrase Farmer’s Insurance®, I know a thing or two because I’ve seen a thing or two. I’ve got insights that help you reduce time to market, marshal the resources needed, and deliver excellent product.
