I’m an art director and designer in NYC. I’ve designed emerging technology products, developed brand strategies, directed photo shoots, and produced campaigns with both in-house teams and creative agencies. I thrive working cross-functionally with engineering and marketing teams to define, develop and refine brands and products.
