I am a designer, branding warrior, campaign puzzle solver, and crackerjack print maverick who loves browsing through the pages of a catalog as much as producing them. A flexible and creative marketing professional with over 15 years of experience managing and executing on design solutions with tight deadlines and budgets. Successful designs include a wide variety of innovative packaging, advertising, catalogs, brochures, trade show material and corporate identity projects.

Some reasons you might want to work with me include:

• Creativity. Not just "monkey on a bike" kind of creative, but strategic and purposeful communication that is compelling and effective. I also aspire to bring out that same level of creativity from those I work with, even if that means bringing out a monkey on a bike.

• Deadline driven. I have always worked with a sense of urgency, believing that it was critical that projects meet specified timelines and to communicate those efforts with my colleagues and clients. This steadfast commitment to deadlines is the cornerstone of my approach to project management.

• Collaborative. How can I help or mentor others, who can I ask for assistance, how will my efforts move the team and the project forward? Addressing those questions and developing teamwork and collaboration is at the very core of every project I take on. I understand that for creative projects to meet objectives and deadlines requires cooperation.
