Biography
Senior Art Director and hands-on multidisciplinary designer with 25+ years creating brand identities, websites, software interfaces, campaigns, presentations and print. For 13 years at General Internet, I served as the primary creative resource across B2B SaaS, healthcare, financial services, mining and emerging technology, leading work from concept through production and launch. I’m strongest at turning complex products and information into clear, cohesive visual systems while collaborating with developers, marketers, founders and stakeholders. I use AI-assisted tools for ideation and prototyping while relying on experienced judgment for the final work.
Outside the studio, I’m a father who loves music, fitness, chess and family time.
Likes: Shortcut keys, kerning, grid systems.
Dislikes: Typos, dot gain, JPEG artifacts.
