Biography
I am an artist, creative director, and visual storyteller with a life-long interest in the intersection of fine and commercial art. I take pride in creating things that are visually thoughtful and engaging to the audience. Services include Creative Direction, Branding, Design Services, Image Sourcing and Art Commissions, Photoshoot Production and Art Direction, Experience Design, Public and Private Art Commissions.
As a creative director, I have collaborated with teams of marketers, editors, business stakeholders to tell coherent, provocative brand stories. I have created visual systems and maintained brand guides, licensed images and art directed global photoshoots. Channels include public and client sites, collateral, product branding, social media, video, email, and event content.
In addition to my design work, I am also an exhibiting artist, represented by a Chelsea Gallery and I have had the opportunity for several large scale public art commissions in NYC and LA.
