I'm dedicated to creating innovative designs with an unyielding passion to create the extraordinary. I specialize in the field of corporate identity (logo) design, print design, packaging, and typography. I love what I do, and I hope people can see that in my work.
Born in Colorado, I love the great outdoors. When I'm not in front of my computer, I can often be found kayaking, waterskiing, skiing, hiking, camping, watching a baseball game, or simply staring at the night sky. I also love traveling to experience new cultures, eat interesting foods, and view art and design from around the world.
My work is deeply influenced by my intuitive sense of color, form and function. I studied Graphic Design and Marketing at the University of Wyoming earning a bachelor in each field. View my résumé and hire me.
My background in design and marketing allows me to understand the whole cycle of design from initial concept to end user. Design speaks differently to each individual. Knowing how an audience will respond to a design is crucial. Design should never simply be slapped onto products to make them look better. Design must be heavily researched with a clear purpose in mind. Great design adds value and it creates an experience that cannot be ignored.

Every event that has affected me throughout my life and the network of support received from my family and friends are all foundations I draw from when designing. My life experiences, memories, and design training are all a vital part of who I've become. I constantly draw from these sources of nourishment when I design. My core gives me life.
The core of a tree is connected to its roots. At its roots, a tree builds its foundation drawing nutrients and transporting them to the entire tree. Once established on a firm foundation, the inner core of a tree continues to grow, bringing nourishment and life throughout its lifespan.
Design is like a tree because every design must start from a firm foundation. The roots are like tiny ideas that spread out and draw more support from outside until one finally takes hold and sprouts a design concept. From there, that tiny concept can be further nourished and cared for as it grows. As more design elements are added it will strengthen its structure, until it will finally produce fruit.
