Born and raised in southern California, I pursued an active interest in art at an early age. By high school, I was enrolled in advanced art classes and further developed my talents. I was accepted to the Savannah College of Art and Design in Savannah, Georgia and upon matriculation I found my niche in the Computer Art program. My studies focused on motion graphics and graphic design. I graduated in 2000 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree.

My senior year in college, I worked for Savannah’s local FOX and ABC affiliate doing promotional graphics. I later moved back to southern California and found a position as a production artist at a local newspaper where I was quickly promoted to Senior Designer and stayed with the company for two years.

I was presented with an amazing opportunity to become an art director for Orange Couch Design House, a local advertising agency, and spent six years there. I also discovered that I have a passion for sharing my design knowledge, which led me to use my spare time teaching graphic design courses at Coleman College in San Marcos, California.

I currently reside in southern New Hampshire with my wife and two-year-old daughter and have begun searching for a new career in graphic design within the Boston and/or southern New Hampshire markets.
