WHO’S THIS GUY?

I believe design has the capacity to change the world by having a positive impact on people’s lives.

Throughout my entire career, I have zealously refused to let go of this philosophy, which many may consider naive. My role as a Creative Director and Designer is to support, inspire and push my clients and my teams. As a result, the goal is to create work that solves business problems, meets objectives and delivers results. I am a dreamer by nature and for this reason, I relentlessly push concepts beyond their obvious solutions. This allows me to discover a deeper understanding of the problem thus discovering the story underneath. Because great work starts with a great story and it’s my job to find that story.

Even though I was trained as a traditional designer, I also have experience in user-centered design, agile lean methodology, user testing and full-stack web development. This provides me with the unique ability to lead clients and multi-disciplinary teams to success on large projects in addition to broad campaigns spanning both digital and traditional needs. I have spent over 20 years working with some of Denver’s best-in-class agencies and clients whose influence spans the globe or simply makes the neighborhood they are in better.

When I’m not working, I spend my time with my wife and our two kids. Outside of that, I am a maker and I can be found dreaming up crazy side projects to constantly fill my leaky bucket of creative inspiration. That is when I’m not working on the continuous and seemingly endless renovation of my 1963 Cape Cod style home.

Thank you for checking me out… I mean, my site and my work. Thank you for looking.
