I consider myself a new breed of designer, merging artistic skills with an understanding of programming and web usability. My goal in each project is to marry good design with functionality and an awareness of the audience and their wants and needs.
I Graduated from Columbia in 2007 with a BFA in Graphic Design and Advertising Art Direction. Since then I have had experience in both an agency and corporate environment. Past clients vary from high-profile retail companies, to financial and corporate clients, to non-profit organizations.
In each case, I strive to create compelling designs and bring them to life both on the screen and on the page. When designing for web, I know that site can be visually stunning, but if doesn't work for the user or show up on a search engine, it is no longer effective. Having an understanding of both good design principles and web programming helps me create the most visually compelling and functional pieces for the clients I work with.
