Visual Skills
TYPOGRAPHY | I have a clear understanding of how letters interact and communicate amongst each other. I know which fonts are appropriate for specific situations based on how they are formed.
LOGO | Logos are meant to be the first message of what a brand is about. I create logos that are strong in concept, clarity and paint the picture of what the brand stands for.
LAYOUT | I have been working with print since I graduated college. Large manuals and brochures has given me a great knowledge of page flow, user experience and layout.
Conceptual Skills
BRANDING | Branding is more than just a beautiful logo and nice typography, it is the story, experience and message behind an idea. I try and communicate this with each brand I am part of developing.
MESSAGING | If the audience misses the story and emotion, then you’ve missed the mark. That’s my focus when it comes to messaging and making sure the audience connects with the brand.
