Why Hire Me? Because...

  • Unlike some other designers, I don't try to pass myself off as a "we" on my site.
  • I've been a professional designer since 1991, using Photoshop and Illustrator extensively, right from the start.
  • I'll ask a client every question I can think of before doing the work. This saves all of us time, money and headaches.
  • As Art Director at Paramount for four years, I've been a client. Having been on the other side of the desk, I've learned what to do and what not to do when dealing with clients.
  • As Producer at Bold New World, I've also come to understand the producer/project manager's role, and treat these people with respect and.
  • I speak in plain English instead of trendy technical buzzwords.
  • I design individually for each project instead of applying the "style du jour" to it.
  • I believe that, whenever appropriate (and if the client lets me get away with it), all design should have an element of humor to it.
  • I know how to draw.
  • I'm not afraid of the technical side of things.
  • I have a strong background in film, animation and writing, and I often apply this expertise to my design work.
  • I'm easy to work with. I'm friendly, punctual, honest, and I always respect my clients.
  • Thank you.
