I’m a graphic designer and digital retoucher specializing in clean, brand-aligned design and high-volume production—from collector’s edition box sets to catalogs and eCommerce imagery. With over 15 years of experience across packaging, print, and digital marketing, I combine creative vision with technical precision to deliver production-ready assets that meet exacting color, quality, and brand standards.

​

Over my career, I’ve worked with clients including Sony Music, Live Nation, Atlantic Records, Manhead Merchandise, Publishers Clearing House, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame-inducted band Yes, creating packaging, promotional materials, and digital campaigns. My work spans Photoshop retouching, color correction, compositing, product photography, pre-press review, and print-ready file preparation, giving me a full-spectrum understanding of visual production workflows.

​

For Yes, I served as lead designer and photographer for album releases, back catalog reissues, merchandise, and tour materials. I contributed original photography, wrote liner notes and copy, and collaborated with printers and vendors on dielines, specialty finishes, proofs, and production schedules. This long-term collaboration honed my ability to balance creative vision with production precision—a skill I bring to every project.

​

Across commercial and digital campaigns, I’ve directed creative production for eCommerce and marketing initiatives, designing and retouching product imagery, landing pages, email assets, and print collateral. I manage high-volume workflows, coordinate cross-functional teams, and maintain consistent color, quality, and brand alignment across multiple formats and channels.

​

I’m equally effective working independently or as part of a team. I have mentored junior designers and interns, maintained standards for visual consistency, and ensured that high-volume projects meet deadlines without sacrificing quality. I value the balance between creativity and precision—and enjoy helping others find that balance in their own work, too.
