ABOUT  professional and personal

From Government, Corporate and Freelance experience it has been my privilege to work in the Graphic Design & Advertising since ’95. I am able to bring a wealth of experience to any project or task, whether it is print, social or multi-media or web. My ability to manage resources as part of a team or on my own is one of my strongest assets. 

I love spending time with my family, the beach and a new found love for travel.

One of my biggest personal accomplishments was achieving the rank of ShoDan in Shotokan Karate.
