About
I am a visual thinking graphic designer/illustrator with a gift for creating high impact, visually memorable
business communication. My approach is based on an understanding of the relationship of design to
communication and the need for a strategic approach to developing graphics and message content. My
skills include art direction, identity and brand development, copywriting and illustration. I have high-level
conceptual skills and can initiate, direct and produce projects from start to finish.
What I bring to the table is a high level of creativity, strong analytical and conceptual skills and the ability
to deliver on time and on budget.
