Graphic Design

As an experienced graphic designer I’ve explored a broad range of the design spectrum from traditional print design, motion design, UI/UX design, production design, photography, and retouching. This holistic approach enables me to bring an integrated mindset to all the projects I work on. It gives me insights into how all these different elements can work together most effectively, most efficiently and aids me in directing and leading all members of a team to produce their best work.

I’M THINKING A LOT ABOUT … …

“Motion. Several years back I noticed that almost everywhere I went, spaces that used to contain print-based ads and posters were being replaced with screens. At that time I dove much more deeply into motion design; I saw the potential to enhance messages for ad audiences and enhance the user experience through micro interactions in the UX space.”

UI/UX

In my last full-time role, I was involved in several UI/UX projects with a particular focus on developing brand identities, creating and maintaining many design libraries and complex components within Figma as well as marketing materials, websites and online advertising for a wide range of clients and industries.

I also mentored colleagues in Figma through regularly scheduled classes.

I continue to engage with UI/UX through courses with the Interactive Design Foundation and RGD Canada.

YOU SHOULD HIRE ME BECAUSE … …

“I’m always thinking about efficiency and ways to accomplish design goals in faster, more efficient ways. I’m always learning; I incorporate those learnings that enhance or replace older ones. I enjoy sharing these new skills with my team. I have a broad skillset from many different disciplines that help me to contribute to teams in multiple ways.”

Retouching / Production

I have worked as a professional retoucher and production designer for more than 15 years. I’ve worked in most sectors from automotive, retail, telecommunications, and beauty to food. I have experience in the complete gamut of retouching from photo resizing, colour correction and grading to complex image composition. As I production designer I have extensive experience in print and digital and have worked in studio management roles.
