As a teen marveling at movie ads the size of posters in the Sunday New York Times or studying album covers while listening to endless hours of music–not to mention the countless magazines that I consumed like oxygen–I thought to myself, “This is what I have to do”, So, here I am.


Put out exceptional product. Be kind and supportive to all collaborators. Always strive to excel while thinking out of the box.

Concentrating on the Swiss design movement that ushered in theories of white space, simplicity, legibility and objectivity in graphic design changed my view as a designer and continues to inspire me as a creative director.

During my professional career designing in entertainment, brand identity, and academia—I’ve had the pleasure of working with superb talents like Lin Manuel Miranda and Thomas Kail on the Hamilton Prize, Jeanine Basinger on Film, The Allman Brothers Band and Richard Elliot on music, and president Michael Roth at Wesleyan University.
