About me

I’m currently sharing my creativity as Graphic Designer at Home and Community Care Support Services Central East. I am a seasoned leader with a proven track record for translating complex ideas and problems into attractive, straightforward campaigns. In addition to my design work, I have also taught part time at Centennial College in the Art & Design Foundation Studies and Graphic Design-Media programs.

I’ve designed brands like Music4Life Ensemble and StringMasters from the ground up. I’ve helped evolve, improve, and visually solidify existing brands like Grimsby Ford. And I’ve maintained the quality and integrity of longstanding recognizable brands like Honda, Lexus, and the healthcare sector of Ontario while still creating fresh and visually engaging designs. I strive for continuous improvement and stay on top of design trends and new technologies. I’m always looking for ways to streamline my workflow and make my techniques more efficient. My mastery of the Adobe creative suite and other tools is at the top of the industry, allowing me total creativity without being limited by software ability.

More personal

When not designing I enjoy music, art, video games and motorcycles. I grew up with a song in my head, acquiring grade 8 RCM in both piano and saxophone before my 16th birthday. Currently I’m learning the cello and am enjoying performing with a small amateur string ensemble. I like to paint and play video games whenever I get the chance. In the warmer months I tinker with and ride motorcycles. Currently I’m riding a Vulcan 800.
