Extended Bio

I've been a professional graphic artist for over four years. I started working small jobs here and there while in college, but I was soon hired on as the supervising artist for That’s Cool Events, a southern California event planning and ice decor company. I worked on ice carving and decor for some of the most exclusive events and high-profile clients. My responsibilities included concepts, production and on-site event setup.

Later, I worked as an associate designer for Westridge Laboratories Inc., one of the leading producers of personal lubricants. In my time there, I held the positions of junior designer, senior designer, creative supervisor and creative director. My experience with Westridge Labs. Inc. included package design, design team management, product development and the creation of marketing materials.

Right now I work as a full time freelance designer completing work for a variety of clients with a variety of needs, as well as the Creative Director for Westridge Laboratories leading my design team to the next big product launch.
