I love design!
I love design as a tool for teaching, sharing, and helping each other to do better business and to create a better world.
Professional Experience
In 1998, I began working professionally as a creative/art director and graphic designer. I have designed logos and stationary, brochures, architectural exhibits, interactive presentations and websites, and even a 210 page full color retrospective monogram for a prolific artist. I have worked for very large corporations, small companies and entrepreneurs in a wide variety of industries. I do needs assessment, strategy, content development and design for print and interactive media.
Since 2002, alongside my design practice, I have been privileged to work with several humanitarian non-profit organizations implementing sustainable (environmental, economic and social) solutions for those in need. www.nextaid.org, www.csafrica.org, www.freetheslaves.org, www.inner-cityarts.org
In the '90s, I worked for worldclass architectural firms (including www.gensler.com) developing and producing computer aided facilities management systems (CAFM) for several Millions of sq. ft. of real estate for Fortune 100 and 500 companies. And before that, I worked as an office/operations and project manager, interior designer and commercial space planner in New York City.
Education
I studied architecture and graphic design at Carnegie-Mellon University, advertising and communications at New York University, and commercial graphics at Parson's School of Design. I also traveled to Ashville, NC to learn how to build edible rooftop gardens for food and as insulation.
I currently live in Los Angeles, California (Venice Beach). I recently moved to the Valley, and my heart longs for the beach.
