Recent Creative Works
HELLO,
I am a U.S. based Multimedia Producer from West Virginia currently working as a senior multimedia specialist for the largest virtual lease-to-own provider in the United States. I also freelance with military and civilian tactical training facilities, music publishing companies, investment firms, churches, and families across the country as a freelance multimedia producer, photographer, and designer.
ART & DIRECTION
My creative spirit is a leather jacket stitched together by the rebellious energy of rockn’ roll, the captivating world of photography, the artistry of painting with light, the vast wonders of the great outdoors, and the freewheeling attitude of skateboarding culture. Each of these influences has left its mark on my artistic DNA, contributing to a unique blend that defines my creative approach. Defining my own personal style has set me apart from others and having a recognizable consistency throughout my work is what I truly strive for.
Out of this love for creative design, my passion for functionality and structure evolved. Building a framework based on simplistic common sense functionality and usability became the catalyst to all of my projects.
