Freelance Creative Director + Project Manager

Project Management

I'm a seasoned creative director & project manager with over 18 years experience working in creative markets
spanning from home goods & fashion to education & fitness. I believe the best kind of work is teamwork and that the end result of every successful campaign is always due to the collective efforts of many talented people.

I am proud to be a part of the creative fabric that (one design at a time) makes the world a fun and beautiful place...
