Creative director. Brand developer. Graphic designer. Marketing specialist.

I'm a multidisciplinary designer with a passion for creative problem solving, with 10+ years of experience in creative direction and management. I'm currently living in Phoenix, Arizona. My hobbies include eating Chinese food, obsessing over my pets (Louie and Mila), and cooking with my wife.

Creative marketing is essential to achieve a honest connection to your audience. I believe designing with a genuine message will bridge the gap between awareness and action.
