    Colleagues have said I produce highly creative solutions to any given design challenge; I hope these images will support this assessment.



    My samples are posted categorized by specific fields of my design experience - I have a separate graphic design, point of purchase design, exhibit design, and packaging design link I can send depending on the context of interest; I am being intentionally vague about my job information as my current employment situation requires my discretion.
