becker&mayer!
Most recently, I was a designer in the juvenile department of this company. Clients include Disney, Chronicle Books, Scholastic Books, and Build a Bear. Most of our products would be defined as “book-plus”, meaning that there is usually some kind of toy included with the book.
Collectors Press
As creative director, I had creative control over books published, website design and company collateral. I also headed up design of a new gift line being developed by the company. I personally designed approximately two 148 page gift books per publishing season and oversaw freelance designers in designing overflow books.

Curiosity Group
Created, illustrated and designed various downloadable “paper crafts” for client websites including Hewlett-Packard, Dreamworks Pictures, Paramount’s Lifetime channel, AOL Time Warner and others. Crafts included such items as customizable greeting cards and picture frames, holiday ornaments and cd covers, t-shirt transfers, business identity kits, scrapbook kits, dioramas, tattoos, stickers, etc. Crafted and photographed step-by-step instructions and final products for website use. Finished files needed to be fully customizable (text and photos) by the user within Adobe Reader.

Meridian Technology Group
Created new business identity. This included designing new logo, collateral and website.
