As a Freelance Design Agent / 3D Brand Architect, I have found that collaborating within different design ecosystems and becoming a pivotal role in the process's co-creation is a rewarding career.
Through the diversity of my projects and experiences; I like to work directly with clients, guiding them through the creative process to a tangible user experience.
I enjoy the opportunity to engage with the full array of the Project Teams from the creative aspects of the Design Team to the logistical challenges of Project Management and find solutions to working actively with on-site Build Teams to satisfy the client.
I have 15+ years of experience working with many within the automotive industry (GM, Toyota, Subaru, Jeep, Lincoln...) from new Vehicle Launch Programs to Experiential Corp Events, Dealer Meetings, Symposiums, and Black Tie events. In addition, PUMA's worldwide brand program, Shawn Mendes VIP tour, the Salt Lake City Olympics, I have a broad understanding of agency-to-client relationships. I know and have lived the commitment and passion needed to bring a satisfying project to completion.
Because of my diverse background as a Designer and Detailer and my ability to work with the extended teams needed to help clients, I look forward to new projects; large or small whenever they arrive.
Please feel free to connect if you are in need. I'm always looking to collaborate on new and interesting opportunities.
