With 20+ years in the creative industry, I’ve built my career around artistic vision, strategic design, and hands-on execution. Early in my career, as Art Director for Ford’s Dealer Catalogs, I led the design and production of brochures for Mustang and Ford Trucks, sharpening my expertise in visual communication, branding, and detail-driven design.
Since then, my work has expanded across graphic design, marketing, web, and freelance creative direction. My freelance projects include branding, promotional design, and event materials, including work for the Traverse City Comedy Fest.
Beyond commercial design, I’m also a painter and illustrator. I’ve self-published four children’s books, created commissioned artwork, and continue to balance technical design expertise with fine art and storytelling.
