Digital Design & Art Direction

New York, NY, USA
I design experiences. That means, digital products, interactions, identities, and environments.

I tap into cultural nuances, engage with emerging themes and solve problems, always aiming to create relevant, appropriate solutions that look as refined as they feel.

I tend to thrive when working on luxury, fashion & art projects; they’re areas I enjoy sinking my teeth into.

Although at the moment I’m submersed in the fast paced startup world of New York tech, exploring the cutting edge of touch screen interaction design, my experience stretches across the whole spectrum of design. From traditional print media, including my own magazine (Idiographic), to visual identities for internationally renowned fashion icons such as Katherine Hamnett.

Work Experience

Onswipe's mission is to make full use of the capabilities of tablets and touch devices in presenting content and making it beautiful. We bring touch to users through the Web browser exclusively, something that has never been done before.

As Lead Designer I oversee all visual output of the company, but primarily my focus day to day is on digital product design.
