Design and Web Design has been a huge part of my story, my background, my journey.
As a doodler and sketcher I have note-books filled with my ideas and drawings, and working with digital design tools was a natural progression for me.
My creative roles at startups, agencies and 2 large corporate advertising companies and a little freelance work has provided me with non stop challenges and opportunities with design projects for ads, flyers, landing pages, web sites, logos and much more.
In addition to being a Photoshop veteren I'm a big fan of Figma for design, web design, layouts, mocks and prototyping. For website building I used to hand code but these days my preference is designing layouts in Figma and creating the site using Webflow and other visual codeless interfaces, even Google Sites.
All of this compliments my Photography and Video work by being able to create designs, portfolios, landing pages, and web pages to promote a brand or service.
If you are looking for help with Design, reach out to me I'm happy to talk.
