I was raised with a Midwestern work ethic and have degrees in fine art, art history and commercial design. I am influenced by the beauty of the American West and my passion for the interconnections in the natural world. I am an experienced graphic designer, creative director and marketing leader who has applied my technical expertise to visual communications, branding and live events. I blend art and science, creating impressions through images that are delivered in straightforward and surprising ways. I’ve received numerous scholarships and awards including the Cannes International Advertising Festival, the New York Art Directors Club, Communication Arts and a Clio. I recently turned my focus to fine art and have studios in Indianapolis and Phoenix.

My current work is focused on a few areas.

Finer Things. I believe that big-picture views are important. Then again, they often obscure interesting things. Natural shapes and patterns are quite beautiful and shouldn’t be ignored.

Co-existence. Because we rely on the natural world for food and fun. We must be thoughtful of our impact on these delicate systems to preserve the natural order.

Rejuvenation. Being in nature brings me a sense of calm and renews my perspective. I celebrate those who explore, enjoy and heal in its majesty.
