WHO
I’d describe myself as a designer & film geek who’s been blessed with a long career working with others to create meaningful visual and engaging experiences. Nothing excites me more than seeing digital entertainment such as games, music or films inspire pop culture, inspire movements, or help others get through hard times. Nothing inspires me more than watching a team of diverse individuals bring their knowledge and unique perspectives together to create something of quality that is fresh, unique, trend-setting, yet still familiar, accessible, and profitable.
Creative professional with over 18 years of digital design and production experience. Over the past two decades, I've served in various roles in art and creative development. From Graphic Designer to 2D Artist, Creative Director and Brand Ambassador, to rendering and illustrating some of Marvel’s most celebrated heroes and notorious villains. I’ve worked with dozens of brands and clients from small, aspiring, independent studios to Fortune 500 companies. 2 shipped AAA titles on PC and mobile. Everything from tech, entertainment, to brand and product marketing, creating high-quality content and helping lead teams to deliver exciting new features on time and within budget.
My approach to leadership is about curiosity and listening, asking questions like how, when, and why. To trust the people around me and meet them where they’re at. To thoroughly understand every nuance of the business and creative goals for the product and stakeholders, then work with all disciplines to facilitate creating a framework that will allow us to successfully exceed those goals with the given time and resources.
