About me
With 8+ years experience in the creative industry, working at agencies, in-house and freelance, I have evolved from Illustrator, to Graphic Designer, and now Art Director.
This migration has been a natural process, following my innate desire to keep context in mind and having a passion for the bigger picture. Although I thoroughly enjoy the conceptual side of design, I still get a real kick out of the daily problem solving and technical execution - the nitty gritty of typesetting, print set-up and work processes. For me, continuity is key.
Outside of work I like to keep physically active and creative. I am an avid rock climber, enjoy cooking and have played in bands for many years.
