My Background…
Over ten years of Graphic Design experience, working for Google, Sony, Capcom and Pixar. Unique blend of design/illustration and project management skills.
Specialties include: creative direction, graphic design, illustration, logo development, package design, brand and corporate ID, directing photography, POP, UI design, video editing, story boarding, advertising design, direct mail, print design, working with and guiding a team, being creative within brand guidelines, and problem solving.
My real day to day job is being a father of two incredible boys and a husband to a super hero wife/mother who is the backbone of our family. It is from my family that I draw inspiration to create and tell stories, which shine through my designs and illustrations.
I graduated with a BA in Graphic Design from Ex'pression College of Digital Arts in Emeryville, CA. After interning for Pixar, I worked as a freelance designer for various agencies and companies throughout the San Francisco Bay Area (ex. CBS Channel 5 News, Comcast, Duarte Design). I then had the opportunity to work as a designer for Sony PlayStation where I grew in to a Sr. Designer and Project Manager.
For the last ten plus years, I have worked on many types of mediums - print/packaging design, digital web and social media, point of purchase campaigns, and huge media/trade show events (ex. E3, PAX, Comic Con SD/NY). I have also taken on many roles from lead designer, to project manager working with internal /external agencies, and creative direction.
As a creative, I am always looking for new challenges, for growth as an artist/designer, and most importantly, to help others convey their own messages.
