Description:

I hail from the state of Indiana. After high school, I headed to Ball State U to pursue a degree in graphic arts. After a year learning all there is to know about offset lithography and screen printing, I realized I wanted to be on the prepress side of the industry. I switched to advertising, where I received a "well-rounded" degree. Too many marketing classes and not enough creative. So I decided to head to Atlanta to pursue art direction at the Portfolio Center. Finally had a book that landed me at Fitzgerald in Atlanta. At Fitzco, I worked on clients from Coca-Cola to Quikrete to the United Way. Got some recognition for the work we did. That lead to a random exchange with some Japanese folks. They ended up publishing a poster I did for Coca-Cola in a Japanese student text book on color theory. Weird story, but very exciting. Currently I'm a Sr. Art Director at Vladimir Jones in Denver. I enjoy all things Colorado. And always looking forward to the snow season.
