    I am a professional illustrator and designer who specializes in the creation of renderings for specialty vehicle projects, as well as marketing and web design, catering primarily to the automotive aftermarket and specialty shop sector.

    My background in the automotive industry grants me a distinct advantage when taking on a new project. Having the hands-on experience and knowledge of the business (as well as the target consumer) allows me to tailor the end product specifically to the needs of my clients, without having to spend valuable time and budget on training for the specific project. When designing a project vehicle, my experience in fabrication, construction and parts afford a great advantage from project planning to final build management.

    Combining these experiences and specialties with my formal art and design training bring the added value of a one-stop design, project management and marketing specialist to the table, allowing for a superior, fine-tuned end product.

    I look forward to not only expanding my experiences and specialties, but aiding in the growth of individual businesses, and the automotive industry as a whole, utilizing my tireless work ethic and excitement for the market in general.
