About Me
I've been living in the Boston area for almost a year now and when I'm not working and the weather is nice, I'm outside. I love to climb, hike, camp, paddle and ride. I also have been enjoying many of the theatres, galleries, museums and pubs that Boston has to offer. This is a great place to live.
Please feel free to contact me at the email listed in my portfolio.
Design Interests
I have a traditional print design background but lately my focus has been on developing my XHTML and CSS skills.
In general I enjoy designing things, websites, logos, invitations, animations, business collateral, diagrams, icons and exhibit signage.
I have extensive experience designing in print and digital media for a wide range of clients, from cookbook authors and musicians to large corporations, particularly in the life-sciences and technology sector. Working for a fortune 15 company for the last five years, I cannot help but be “brand savvy.” I am very comfortable in all aspects of the design process, managing multiple concurrent projects from kickoff meetings and concept presentations, to developing final designs. Working with printers and exhibit companies ensuring the successful completion of each project is a given.
Please take a moment to review my portfolio which in itself has been an excellent excercise in learning Flash and some Actionscript.
