ABOUT ME:

I'm an award winning senior art director & designer by day, and an ice cream fiend by night. I'm also a hand lettering & giant type nerd all the time.

I've been described as a force of nature by more than one Executive Creative Director.

Some of the brands I've been lucky enough to work on: Krispy Kreme, Cree, Seventh Generation, IHG (InterContinental Hotels Group), Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, Coca-Cola, Microsoft Edge, AT&T, Toshiba, Microsoft Office, Bolthouse Farms, T-Mobile, KEXP, Susan G. Komen, Bumbershoot Music Festival, Seabourn Cruiselines, Julep, plenty of internal agency projects, and lots of new business pitches. 

I'm married to my best friend/awesome photographer Emily, who you should probably consider hiring for any photography needs you have.

I'm also a Creative Circus design graduate, ex-clothing company owner, and former guy-in-a-band cliché.

Feel free to get in touch and say hi! I'm always open to freelance work, collaborations, new ideas, suggestions, etc.

What I've been up to on instagram lately:

End of day birthday report: It was laid back, spent mostly with @invisiblemily, really great friends, and the best dog model. Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes! 🎉 I feel old but very content right now. 😊 . . . #Birthday #happybirthday #march31 #aries #afterlight #chasinglight #liveauthentic #savannah #georgia
It’s my birthday today. I’m not the kind of person to make a big deal out of it, but I do like looking back at the past year and thinking about how things have changed or how I’ve changed and grown. Looking back at where I was last year compared to now, there is a world of difference. Last year at this time, @invisiblemily and I were living in Raleigh, NC, completely miserable and trying to find a way out by any means possible. I was freelancing, which I learned is a financially devastating thing to do in a small market like Raleigh. We were seriously considering moving to Savannah, Charleston, New Orleans, and Washington DC, and were desperately grasping at any opportunity that would take us to any of those places. One year later, we absolutely love living in Savannah, GA (though the PNW still has my heart), and I’ve got a great job helping to lead creative at a small but mighty agency here in town. All that exposition to get to my point — Hold. On. Things always change and are always evolving. Even when it doesn’t feel like it. If you feel stuck in life, which I do a lot, you can rest in the fact that things are always moving behind the scenes in ways that you may not see or feel. So many huge changes have happened over the past year, and I’m really, really grateful for that. Most of all, I’m grateful that @invisiblemily has been with me every step of the way. 🎉
🔈I read a truly terrifying article in the middle of the night about people whose Lyme disease medications are severely mismanaged. It can cause them to severely herxe, which is a word I’d never heard before last night. It’s the mental state that mismanaged medication can put people into. In severe cases, it’s a state of psychosis, severe dissociative disorder, and possible permanent brain damage. I read a first hand account of someone in the middle of herxing and it was unbelievably terrifying. Swipe to see a photo of a happy baby seal if you need to lighten the mood. . . . #creativecoding #graphicdesign #digitalartist #artist #touchdesigner #generativeart #generative
There are no words for how lucky and blessed I am to be married to my best friend. Sorry everyone, @invisiblemily is my favorite person out of all 7 billion of them on the planet earth. Happy Valentines Day, beautiful! . . . #valentines #valentinesday #happyvalentinesday #marriage #marriagegoals #😍 #❤️
