As an artist, I believe it is my job to be relentless in the exploration of new possibilities. For me, this means constantly expanding and improving my skills in art, design, interactivity and communication. I specialize in both fine and digital art and design, as well as creative consulting. Bridging the gap between the digital and the analog art world is one of my passions, and I love to play with color, format, pattern, new mediums, and new ideas.
Creation is an act that brings me true joy, and I endeavor to bring a sense of enthusiasm, collaboration, respect and possibility to any work place I am a part of.

TW Lighting, Needham Heights, MA , Lead Graphic Designer
---Responsibilities
Each day at this job I was in charge of designing and implementing multiple projects for TW Lighting, including Website updates, Social Media interaction, info graphics, point of sale materials, shipper stands, box designs, and overall web presence of TW Lighting. Communication and understanding with the Project Manager, Promotions Manager, Web Designer and 2 Presidents of TW Lighting was on a daily basis to make sure every base was covered in my work.
---Accomplishments
Starting at TW Lighting, their graphic design and visual department was lacking. Within my first few weeks there, I executed multiple projects to push their brand awareness and style. Over 40 individual boxes were made for their lightbulbs, custom dome ceiling light designs, redesigning their website, and a full Las Vegas booth display done with minimal overhead. After these projects, TW Lightings awareness in the LED community was felt, and very well received at LightFair 2014 in Las Vegas.
As of recently I also took over their Social Media department to further push TW Lightings awareness. Starting with a few followers on both Facebook and Twitter, we are now topping over 1K followers, with fresh content updated everyday over multiple platforms. The results have yielded a larger customer and retail base overall.
