I'm a Graphic and Presentation Designer with 15+ years design experience in a wide variety of industries. I have worked on presentations for audiences of up to 15,000 people, Fortune 500 Companies and well known companies in the Social Media and Tech industries.
A recipient of the Hermes Platinum Award for Publication and Magazine design, I enjoy working in fast paced environments where excellence and quick turnaround are equally as important as a strong design aesthetic. I can problem solve well, think on my feet, and deliver high quality products consistently, with quick turnaround for edits.
Since 2004, I have worked directly with hundreds of businesses in building their company collateral. I have a proven track record of helping some of the most recognizable brands in the world take their presentation decks, reports and marketing collateral to the next level.
