Design and illustration is a constant part of everything I do. From rearranging the refrigerator to designing a brochure or illustrating a book, I see everything in terms of balance, form, shape and color. After fifteen years in Philadelphia and New York City, and 7,800 subway rides commuting, I examined and reassembled every subway ad in view, jump-starting my fascination of effective advertising. Twenty years in marketing, analyzing TV commercials and every product I use to see how they reach their customers. Twenty-eight years of typography, meticulously drawing letters and type since I could write. Finally, an illustration BFA from Philadelphia and a lifetime studying color, line and basic composition. I navigate through Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign better than my kitchen and could edit fiction imagery or renderings to compelling photographic work. I am specialized in design and branding, with experience in administration and information technology, making me a significant value in fulfilling any of your design and illustration work with a larger scale of skills.
