I'm

About

With over 12 years of experience and a BFA in Visual Communication, I specialize in building brands and digital experiences that blend strong visual design with real business results. My background spans branding, ecommerce development, UX/UI design, SEO strategy, packaging, motion graphics, and conversion-focused web experiences across industries ranging from consumer products to luxury goods and lead generation platforms.

I’ve led projects from concept to launch, creating logos, visual systems, Shopify storefronts, custom web functionality, marketing campaigns, product packaging, and interactive user experiences. My work combines creative direction with technical execution, allowing me to move fluidly between design, development, strategy, and digital marketing.

Whether launching a brand from scratch or evolving an established company, I focus on building modern, scalable experiences that not only look strong visually, but also drive engagement, traffic, and measurable growth.

Facts

While I can't give you an exact figure for the many ads, images or ideas I've developed, I want to show you some numbers anyway - for the sake of reference. Over the years I have created countless buttons, banners and thumbnails for SharePoint, as well as custom buttons and icons for ads. I've also managed stock images and client assets, and spent hours focusing solely inside Photoshop working with them. My delight for animation with javascript and jQuery complements my skills, and the amount of projects I have completed is somewhere around what you see below (give or take).

Skills

As technology continually evolves, I view my current skill set as a "dynamic" representation of my capabilities. Staying on top of the latest coding practices and annual Adobe updates is an ongoing feat I view as a personal challenge. Finding a way to use these new technologies and updates for every project, drives my professional growth.

Photoshop 95%
Illustrator 90%
XD/Figma 75%
AI (in Progress) 50%
HTML 95%
CSS 90%
Javascript/jQuery 85%

Resume

This is really just a list of places I've worked and things I've done. There's a lot more to who I am and what I'm about... but have a look. I do have some experience doing things and doing them well.
