I'm a professional graphic designer and illustrator with ten years of experience. Additionally, I have nearly six years of experience in web design and font-end development. My aesthetic tends towards clean lines, inviting colors, and overall less-is-more mentality. I graduated from Miami University (Oxford Ohio) with a Bachelor's degree of Arts in Architecture. After college I worked in the architectural field for roughly two years, but ultimately decided to pursue a career in graphic design and illustration which has allowed me to more fully utilize my creative skills. Through my experience in both fields, I have developed a wide skillset that can bring a unique and fresh perspective to your team or project.
I have been creating professional illustrations for over ten years. My work includes everything from detailed technical illustrations to icons and pixel artwork. I have an expert level of experience with Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, GIMP, and Inkscape.
Posters, booklets, brochures, infographics and icons are just a few types of collateral I have worked on. I am highly skilled with Adobe InDesign, Adobe Acrobat, and Scribus. Additionally, I am very familiar with how to set up files for print production and have had much experience working with professional printers to see projects through production.
With nearly 6 years of experience in front end design and development, I am fluent with HTML, CSS, and Javascript. I have worked with the jQuery and Angular libraries, as well as CSS preprocessors like SCSS. Additionally I am familiar with the basics of php, and have some experience working with CMSs like WordPress and Craft.
Throughout my career, I have developed several additional skills including: Animation (css animations, Adobe Animate, and animated GIFs), 3D modeling/rendering (Sketchup, Terragen, and Lumion) and video editing (Adobe Premier). I am also skilled with traditional media such as charcoal, pencil, and watercolor.
