I'm a multifaceted digital designer with an unusual combination of both creative and technical expertise. With over 30 years of agency experience, whatever your specific needs are I can help you achieve the vision. Been there, created that.
You won't get buzzwords like synergy or holistic—just practical and effective outcomes. I'm a pragmatic thinker who values measurable results. Contact me today and let's build something together!
The ever-evolving digital landscape is my obsession. Launching a complex deliverable like a website, product, or new brand requires a broad skillset supported by insight, perspective, and planning. It's like building a house... to fully deliver on a shared vision, all the right expertise must be included at the right time.
Design and branding is my passion but it's only one aspect of what I do. While my title has been Creative Director for most of my career, what I really do is wear a lot of hats. With decades of experience across a variety of industries, marketing deliverables, and multiple mediums, there isn't much I can't deliver. And if I can't do it myself I can coordinate a team to support it, guided by collaborative process. A colleague once called me "The amoeba of getting 💩 done." Work with me to appreciate why.

Mindgrub is a tech-focused org whose primary strenght is software development, but also offers creative and marketing for its clients under an 'agency' model.

My work has been awarded a District 2 Addy and multiple W3 recognitions—but the most rewarding thing is hearing 'thanks' from clients
