As one half of a full-range media studio I handled projects ranging from video editing, illustration, design, photography, 3D modeling and 3D / 2D animation. A varied client list and high demand guaranteed a dynamic work environment where time management was crucial.
Managed a 12-person crew in a dynamic high-stress enviroment. Managed the receiving of nightly freight, old inventory and storage logistics. Led a successful initiative partnering stock crew with crew from different sections to increase cross-coverage support and a larger understanding of the needs of the store as an entity.
Every design must be expertly crafted and deeply thought-out to convey its message accurately—collaboration is crucial to ensure arrival at the correct design together. An inspired, fresh, and standout final design is always my goal. My Work
Logo Design and branding are key to both creating and maintaining cohesive identity. Is it enough to be remembered or should we aim higher and get you noticed? My Work

I have a rich history of music production and performance stretching back over 40 years. Trained classically in violin and piano, I have played with many chamber and orchestral groups over the years professionally and also just for fun. I've also been known to take to the stage with a synth (or 2+) or a bass guitar in hand.
One of a series of poster designs for the Contemporary Physics Education Project (CPEP) for public high school physics classrooms and the general public. Created in sizes from 8.5"x11" to a wallchart size at 59"x41".
A major 2-color typography rework of a logo that has changed little over the past 40 years. The new logo was created with a more playful feel to engage the general public and represent a dynamic, evolving science focused on the future.
A printed 10th anniversary portfolio of my professional photography from 2004-2014.
Book cover inset design for an existing physics journal (I had no control over the main book cover design). The booklet is a wraparound print to match the inset design of the larger book.
Request by the Advanced Physical Society for an updated logo for print-header usage.
Complete redesign with modernized fluid UI and UX functionality. This entire site was reworked from an older 90s-era website to modern standards with a focus on seamless mobile integration. Requiring robust data visualization and access to a very large database, this project was very complex and well-received.
After many delays I was able to focus on a logo of my own utilizing a simplified 2-color typographic style.
Created modern UI and UX functionality prototype for a deep-space physics experiment.
