HELLO EVERYONE

I am a professional graphics/marketing designer (and photographer) with a focus on Brand-Identity and Product Design. After a decade in the news industry and more than six years working for various creative and editing agencies, I've dedicated my career goals, energy and prospects to the world of graphic design and brand marketing, and maintaining a continued love for sports, landscape, arts and feature photography. 

I learned how to design for print and web early on when I learned how to build my own computers back at the turn of the century. Being able to build experience with software like Photoshop and InDesign since they were sold on floppy disks, I have gained enough professional experience to work with large news companies and organizations like Forum Communications, the University of North Texas, the University of Missouri, Baylor University and wide variety of regional businesses and publication outlets. My Tenure designing in a rapid-paced news industry has yielded me with a firm commitment do constant deadlines, customer review and a keen eye for precise detail orientation.

I collaborate and consult with design hubs, professional groups and startups over product development including brand identity, digital creation, print production and art direction. While my aesthetic generally features a sleek and modern appeal, I always take an adaptable approach to all my clients and design projects. Working for myself and has allowed me to engage more prominently with the Texas performing arts community, further honing my passion for photography by working with artistic organizations like Solar Rain, Pyrotex, Sangre Del Sol and Global Dance Theatre.
