Senior Graphic Designer

Creative & Design

I’m a graphic artist / designer heavily influenced by skateboard graphics, cartoons and contemporary design. I studied Fine Arts at Virginia Commonweal th University, concentrating in Painting and Printmaking. My goal is to utilize my skills and knowledge in fine arts and design to create imagery that communicates to the viewer; evoking a thought and conveying a message, while all the while having fun.

I work in adidas skateboarding managing graphics for apparel.

Design seasonal hardgoods and printables graphics. Work with the marketing department to develop ads, web assets, catalogs, P.O.P. and anything else that's needed.

Graphic Designer

While at DVS I was involved heavily in every thing from design to production. My primary responsibilities were designing graphics to be used with apparel, footwear, accessories, marketing collateral, P.O.P, packaging, trims, signage, and large format trade show material. 

I worked with the creative director, the art director as well as the footwear designers to develop logos and branding for signature footwear, packaging, apparel and accessories. Towards the end of my time at DVS I also took on apparel design. This includes cut & sew as well as accessories. Mostly hats and fleece pieces.

My production responsibilities included photoshop retouching for apparel, footwear, action and lifestyle photography. Also creating and managing tech packs for printable and cut&sew apparel.

My responsibility was to support the design staff. The majority of the work I did here was layout based. We would design/layout any necessary materials for the client’s meeting or event. This usually included program guides, posters, flyers and signage.
