hello!

I’ve been passionate about visual expression ever since I could hold a pencil. My instincts taught me that art and design can persuade, teach and touch hearts — and my career has taught me that they can drive business. In approach, I’m both a thinker and a craftsman, equally fascinated by the deep work of human-centered design strategy and the fine points of meticulous execution. I’ve conceived, directed and produced successful activations for category leaders in CPG, retail, foodservice and other sectors. I’ve also supported many smaller innovators and disruptors with breakthrough branding and design.

When I’m not pushing boundaries on client work, you’ll find me spending time with my family and pursuing my personal passions for mountain biking, camping and working on my 1965 Mustang. I’m also an avid volunteer supporting organizations including the Nathan Yip Foundation, Habitat for Humanity, American Institute for Graphic Arts and USA Cycling.
