Let's start at the beginning...
Do you like to cook? If you do, you know that creating a delicious meal can be as simple as combining a few basic ingredients: food + spices + heat = dinner.
How about gardening? Same thing: seeds + soil + water = lettuce.
Effective design requires a similar formula. Determining the right elements is half of the challenge. The other half is combining those elements into a design that communicates your message successfully.
I love my job. As a graphic artist who understands communication and marketing, I'll help you find the right elements for your design project. If the elements aren't there, I'll create them.
Please look around my site. If you like what you see, let's talk. I'd be delighted apply my skills and experience towards helping you to succeed.

Corporate makeover: I was recently contracted by Anderson ZurMuehlen & Co. to create and deploy a new corporate identity. After celebrating 50 years in business, the accounting firm thought it was time for a new logo and a fresh start on their visual materials.
