Art Director
With over eight years of experience as an art director and graphic designer, I have dedicated my career to crafting compelling visuals that not only tell a story but also drive meaningful engagement. My passion for design goes beyond aesthetics—it's about impact. I thrive on creating work that resonates, inspires action, and strengthens brand identity. Every project is an opportunity to push creative boundaries, solve complex problems, and bring ideas to life in a way that leaves a lasting impression.
Before my career in design, I served six years of active duty in the United States Air Force. My time in the military shaped who I am today, instilling in me a deep sense of discipline, resilience, and leadership. The Air Force’s core values—Integrity First, Service Before Self, and Excellence in All That I Do—are principles I continue to live by, both professionally and personally. These values guide my approach to design, teamwork, and problem-solving, ensuring that I always bring my best to every project and those I collaborate with.
Beyond my love for design, I am deeply invested in collaboration and teamwork.
I believe the best ideas are born from collective effort, and I thrive in environments where creativity is fueled by shared passion and mutual support. Whether leading a project or contributing as part of a team, I am dedicated to uplifting those around me, fostering growth, and ensuring that we all succeed together. Helping others develop their skills and watching them thrive is just as rewarding to me as delivering a stunning final product.

Outside of work, I find balance and inspiration through skateboarding, working out, golfing, nature, and reading. Each of these activities fuels my personal growth and sharpens my creative mindset, keeping me adaptable and constantly evolving. At my core, I am wildly passionate about the business of brand and design. I understand the power of storytelling, strategy, and execution in shaping how people connect with a brand. Every pixel, every composition, and every concept is an opportunity to make an impact, and that’s what drives me every single day. I’m here to create, to inspire, and to build something meaningful—both for the brands I work with and the teams I collaborate alongside.
