I am a freelance graphics artist and design aficionado. Based in Indianapolis, Indiana, I specialize in logo design, brand identity, print collateral, illustration and web design.
I bring over 10 years of design experience to work on every project. My time in both collegiate and corporate design environments gives me a unique and creative perspective on design and problem solving. My innovative, simple and modern designs translate client’s vision into striking end products.
I have a laidback approachable style that facilitates communication with clients. My goal is to deliver top quality design with attention to detail, business sense, and experience. I work with deadlines and within budget constraints to achieve optimal results.
Along with my design work, I enjoy photography, the outdoors, drawing and following the latest trends in the arts and design communities. My driving desire is to continue refining my skills and continue to learn.
