Cognitive and business driven Art Director & Lead UX Design Strategist that is growing tired of contracts and looking for a long term solution and team. I love products that give me the opportunity to express and combat a good idea. Pen and paper is the premise, the software capabilities are only tools, never obstacles.
Worked with fortune 500 Companies: Oakley, Samsung, AT&T, Cricket Wireless, Microsoft, Sony, Vistage CEO, Holiday Inn, Everbank, and many more.
A proven leader who is hands on and very easy to communicate with, I am not your average designer. Pushing brands as well as people to cultivate the best business they can, all while utilizing the most efficient practices in tech today. Being an avid reader and always reverting to the student attitude is what drives me to make sure my work is relevant. Putting your work in the hands of a professional opinion should be easy, that is why I back all my work with necessity and ROI as well as HCI. Making sure business is the goal, and not arbitrary pretty pictures.
