I am a creative resource working in the Cleveland, OH area. I have 10 years of visual arts experience ranging in brand development, print collateral for retail markets, an art photographer and interactive designer.

What I love most is taking snap-shots with my *crappy old Nikon 4500. This camera has been through everything with me. I cant seem to let go to this tank of a digital camera. Stop by my personal site to see some of the daily journal . Follow the link below to view the site. Check it out.

*The camera is pooched. Need a new one.

Visual Communication n. communicaiton that relies on vision

I'd like to think that what I do is think of every project as a stepping stone to a larger vision. It may start out as a few pixels on a website, or a small photograph for an advertisement, but in the scope of the big picture its the way you do business. In our field we are speakers that use hands to communicate to your senses. Its not that far off when I think about how things will taste or smell when developing a brand or creating a package design. Its all about preception.

Listed below are several examples work ranging from retail branding to commercial photography.
