what i do

I am a multidisciplinary design factory.
My work ranges from print pieces like this one, to posters like this one, identities, websites, motion graphics, and anything else that can be visually communicated.

about me

I am a graphic designer and typophile, currently residing in Cincinnati (and sometimes Columbus), Ohio. I was born just outside of Boston, Massachusetts and on the day of my 8th birthday, my family moved to Cincinnati. I recently graduated from the Ohio State University with a BSD in Visual Communication Design and am spending my days playing music and designing pretty things. I enjoy grooming my beard, listening to reggae music, and wishing I had my own cat to sit next to me while I work.

drop me a line

Here is what I can do for you:
Logo/identity design, web design and coding, print design (posters, brochures, business cards, etc.), photo editing, flash animation, and much more.
Let's work together.
