Bio
as long as I can remember I’ve been drawn to the art of making and creating things. Sometimes starting from nothing and designing from the ground up, and other times refining or reimagining something to improve it.
After a several years in a traditional graphic design field I opened my own branding agency to serve my clients with visual Identity Design and marketing strategy.
Design for me isn’t contained to one mode or medium. as much as I love digital design work, my passion for creativity extends to architecture, physical products, interior design and more
My ENTREPRENEURIAL interests have Always played a key role in my design work, shaping my appRoaches to solving design problems throug The lens of business goals. Recently I’ve had oppOrtunities to partner on several new ventures, scratching that itch to apply some of my practiced skills on my own businesses.
if you would like to work with me on a branding or design effort, you can find my current work and serves at the links below.
When i’m not designing and building things for our clients, i’m likely outdoors, finding mountain views, camping, riding motorcycle, or combining all of those things in one and bringing as many people with me as i can. I’m also a huge fan of coffee and cooking, and the way those two things bring people together in unique and special ways. If i were to win an award for anything in either category it would be a simple but delicious maple latte, or a wood fired pizza - a creation of my own that features pear and procuito, goat cheese and honey!
What I Do Professionally
Consulting
I walk my clients through a multi step guided process to identify their brands’ personality before they into a large scale rebranding effort. Getting this right can prevent dozens of rounds of revisions when working with your design team or agency, potentially saving thousands of dollars and countless hours of frustration.

On the creative side I have a talented team working alongside me at 360 Outdoor Media Group to serve small and medium sized product brands. Our focus is in the outdoor industry but we have something to offer for most brands marketing a physically produced product - from development and packaging, to launch campaigns and social media strategies - and of course leveraging our years of experience in brand design and successful websites, including e-commerce solutions and platforms.
