Hello, I am an independent Art Director & Photo Director, as well as Designer, and Illustrator working in the Tri-state area. I specialize in fashion design, editorial design, photography direction, and brand building within the direct-to-consumer, fashion & lifestyle industry.
My career has spanned many industries, and I enjoy the diverse challenges that I receive as an independent contractor. Over the course of 17+ years, I've been fortunate enough to create for large and small companies alike— from Fortune 500 to startups. In my years as an Art Director, I have lead re-branding and multi-level campaigns for many diverse clientele.
I am a passionate and enthusiastic artist, who believes in communication, and powerful creative motivation. I enjoy staying current and relevant in whatever industry I am in. My aesthetic is sophisticated and contemporary with focus on communication and clear motivational messaging . I am highly organized and always current — continually seeking techniques to work more efficiently. Currently, I am seeking work with companies that can utilize my creative ambitions, in a positive, eco-friendly, and diverse environment.
