I'M A multidisciplinary designer with an eye for innovation and pixel perfection
I am an obsessively driven, diversely experienced creative director who believes that good is not only never enough, it is the enemy of great. An art director, designer, illustrator and photographer, I am also a doer, manager, leader, mentor, presenter and builder of creative departments. A father, runner and cyclist with an adventurous spirit, I am full of energy and passion, but never full of myself.
I don't settle for conformity. When I see something that could be better, I strive to know more, get to the root of the issue, understand the contributing factors and arrive at a new solution. Unlike many creative directors, I lead by example and instruction. After all, actions are the most valuable piece of anyone’s portfolio.
I Strive to make A positive difference in the world
Helping and supporting others is part of who I am. I like to think that my positive energy enriches the lives of everyone I work and connect with. Passionate about adding value and teaching others what I’ve learned, I live the universal principle — “the more you give, the more you get.”
That’s why, for the past four years I’ve created multiple fundraising events for CureSearch. These events celebrate and honor children who have been affected by cancer or simply rally family members, friends and colleagues to increase overall children’s cancer awareness.
On Memorial Day weekend we held our first West Texas Tour, a 68-mile, round-trip, self-supported bike tour from Davis Mountains State Park to Balmorhea State Park. Our goal for the event was to raise $1,000 for CureSearch. Thanks to all the hard work and effort of friends and colleagues, we ended up making more than double our goal by raising $2,180.

I'VE ALWAYS HAD A SENSE OF ADVENTURE
I love going on adventures because they give me new insights and perspective. Arbitrary and wondrous trips that don’t always have a clear beginning or end, my wanderings help me embrace the unexpected and appreciate different viewpoints.
Taking photos along the way, my travels always reveal how people change from cities to rural areas, and how the land transitions from mountains, rivers, deserts, plains and beyond. I always realize that in spite of our apparent differences there is an undeniable connectivity to all the people I meet.
