    I have an accomplished history in graphic design for print and broadcast production as a Creative/Art Director and Digital Artist for some of the world’s leading brands. What I bring to this position is over 25 years of experience with a proven track record in Creative Development, Art/Creative Direction, Team Management and Leadership, Strategic Planning, Production Oversight, and Client Relations.

    I’ve been a partner or sole owner of several San Francisco post-production companies which generated upwards of 35 million in combined revenue. My work has contributed to the sale of countless products and services, heightened the awareness of hundreds of brands and generated millions in revenue for past employers and their clients while exceeding all expectations.

    I have a talent for creating effective team environments through mentoring, open communication, integrity and accountability while encouraging others to think outside the box. I’m able to spearhead and manage content strategy for projects of any scale, developing successful campaigns that translate marketing objectives into clear strategic creative.
