Graphic Design (Graphic Design & Branding for Print + Screen)
What I Do? I strive to create innovative designs that engage the audience in the striking amplification of decor and clarity. Where as graphic design is both and neither art and commerce, it is my responsibility to accentuate the fine line that lie between. I have and will continue to practice within many forms of design media, though I find that I am at my best developing and enhancing brands through the origination of idea and form intended for print and inevitably existent on the web.
How I got to do what I do? I have reached my professional and creative apex through years of mentorship, visual osmosis, and cultural exploration, with the recent addition of a bachelors of fine arts degree from CalArts. My path has been somewhat unconventional though fulfilling nonetheless. In my many travels through the cosmos of design time and space, one thing that I have learned is that there is no end to education as a designer. It is a lifelong journey of trial, error, discovery, faith, and adventure.
Tips:To become a truly good designer you must dedicate as much of your senses as possible. See the world through the designer's eye. Eat with the palette of a designer, drink the designer's kool-aid. Allow yourself the gratification that everything that can be done has already been done, but take this fact with a grain of designer's salt and do what you can to reinvent new wheels with the utmost importance. Designers are problem solvers with a paint brush, and the world is constantly fading is the bright light of commercial banality. We are anti heroes ever burdoned with the selfless mission of functional beautification. So aim high, get dirty, and never apologize for anything except for the use of comic sans.
