About
Extremely versatile and creative Designer / Illustrator / Brand builder with over 15 years experience in multiple apparel and accessory categories from many licensed brands to private label.
Specialties: Illustration, Graphic Design, Product Design, Branding / Logo Design, Hand Lettering and Typography.
Product categories include: Cut & Sew apparel, Cut & Sew Headwear, Cold Weather Goods, Bags and backpacks, Small Leather Goods and Footwear.
Brands I've worked on: Zoo York, Ecko Unltd., Mitchell & Ness, Rocawear, Sean John, Blue Marlin, TapouT, Disney, Looney Tunes, Sesame Street, Muppets, OP, X-Games, Airwalk and many others, as well as private label for Lids, Target, Kohls, Sears and JCPenney.
Although my work is predominantly executed on the computer, I am always exploring ways to utilize my passion for traditional illustration, hand styles, typography and letterforms. My roots in Hip Hop and skateboard culture have helped foster this passion throughout my career. Subsequently, I intentionally include as much hand drawn illustration and lettering in my work as possible. I have a high appreciation of the balance in using traditional painting, drawing
mediums and techniques to compliment the digital aspect of design. -
