I’m a multidisciplinary art director, designer and artist living and working in New York City. After graduating from the School of Visual Arts I began my career as a book jacket designer at Farrar, Staus and Giroux. I later moved into the world of branding working for agencies such as Ogilvy & Mather (BIG), Desgrippes Gobé, and most recently served as art director at Apartment One, an award-winning agency based in Brooklyn. I currently work independently and frequently collaborate with various studios and agencies throughout the city.

My goal is to create engaging, well-crafted work that
fits the needs of my clients and inspires meaningful connections with their brands. I work with a diverse list of clientele creating a variety of digital and print based solutions for both large-scale corporations and smaller, independent companies. I’m a creative problem solver with expertise in a range of disciplines including web and print design, visual identities, packaging, branding, book jacket design, photo art direction, production and typography.
