About
I have worked in the design field for the last six years strategically developing brands and products for companies including the Cleveland Clinic, Moen, Disney, Pixar, Twitter, Fisher Price, Tetris, and Mattel. This experience has given me a solid understanding of project management, retail advertising, and program development.
I am currently the lead designer at Mattel on the Pixar Cars customized line, which services exclusive segments and programs for the top four major retailers.
