Artist Statement

Much of my freelance work experience has been with web design. I have found it to be an easier pitch for small businesses. However, most of my portfolio includes print work that has accumulated through my work at the University of Miami. There I received my bachelor's degree in graphic design as well as communication studies. The latter being of equal importance to my design degree, in that it has helped me to understand all the ways people communicate and interpret messages. It has also helped me to build marketing strategies, which is one thing I believe many young designers lack. My work reflects my desire to communicate ideas and information through conceptual thinking and design. I have considerable experience in dealing with client relationships; and a thorough knowledge of the process and procedures of a forward-thinking, fast-paced design environment. I work well with people and enjoy getting the work at hand completed.
