Profile

I am a senior graphic designer with over 25 years of experience in illustration, package design, product design, apparel, branding, repeats and type design. I have recently done work for Colgate Palmolive, including designing icons and illustrations for packaging, as well as informational graphics for focus group presentations. Also for Colgate, I did character art for kids toothpaste packaging. I have extensive experience in the personal care category, including a package design that won the 2010 Product of the Year award by Disney Consumer Products. I also created an entire line of illustrated Cold Packs called Boo Boo Buddies, for M Z Berger and Co., and revamped the packaging for this product. This past April, over 140 of my illustrations were published in a book called History of Weapons, put out by Chronicle Books. I also recently completed style guide art for A&E's Duck Dynasty and Swamp People shows, and for 4K Media's Yu-Gi-Oh. This art included repeats, spot graphics and icons. Recently, I have received some 3D modeling assignments using ZBrush. Previously, I created much of the style guide art for the Superman Returns movie style guide, which included an icon featured on all of the licensed product packaging.
