About
I build brands, products, and visuals that live in the real world.
For more than 20 years, I’ve worked across design, production, and operations—developing everything from retail campaigns and merchandise to community projects and live events. My background spans illustration, brand development, apparel graphics, packaging, and large-scale marketing initiatives, with hands-on experience bringing ideas from concept through execution.
I’ve contributed to work for national brands including Home Depot, Mohawk Industries, Coca-Cola, recteq, and others, creating visuals used in retail environments, product marketing, and large-scale campaigns. That experience taught me how to think beyond the screen—designing work that holds up in real-world conditions, across production methods, materials, and environments.
Alongside my corporate work, I’ve built and operated my own ventures. I founded Highpoint Shirts, an apparel and merchandise business focused on production and client-driven projects, and co-created Full Blast Disc Golf, a lifestyle brand built around merchandise, events, and community engagement. These projects combine creative direction with real-world execution—designing products, managing vendors, organizing events, and building something people actually engage with.
I’ve also led larger-scale initiatives, including proposing, designing, and helping develop a permanent disc golf course in my community through fundraising, coordination, and hands-on execution. Experiences like that reinforce how I approach work: practical, collaborative, and focused on getting things done.
At the core, I’m someone who understands how ideas become real—how design, production, logistics, and people all connect. Whether it’s a product, a campaign, or a community project, I focus on building things that are functional, tangible, and built to last.
Available for freelance, contract, and full-time opportunities.
