I'm an artist and graphic designer living in Durham NC. I am a fan of minimalist design and black and white photography. My ideas are fresh and I'm determined to use my skills to inspire others and make a difference in the world.
I understand how hard it can be to get your idea, product, or brand off the ground and running. Time, hard work, determination, and maybe even a few failed attempts will be made before you're ready to take it to the next level. But once your ready, that's the best part!
It's time to make your thoughts into action and start making a difference!
That's where I come in—Your Idea's "Second Parent"; The guy whose job it is to give your brain baby all the tools it needs to have a fighting chance.
Choosing the right person to work with can be difficult, you are not just hiring a designer you are hiring a partner. Whether I am across the globe or across the street I want to work alongside you, offering resources for your business today and well into the future.
I will be happy to respond with you at my earliest convenience and discuss how my experience and talents may match your or your companys needs. You can reach me by email at (please mark as urgent):
