Art director, filmmaker and professor at the School of Visual Arts. Mm hmm. Believe it or not. I've been an artist and designer most of my life. Thanks to the guidance of both of my parents who are graphic designers themselves, I graduated from the graphic and interactive design program at Tyler School of Art, which I lovingly referred to as boot camp for designers. I've worked for large advertising networks like I PG WPP and Havas where I was an associate creative director at their flagship headquarters. I also maintained a steady freelance career working with small businesses as well as independent film and music projects. My work has been recognized by organizations like How C. N. Y. K magazine, creativity. Annual awards, Art directors club and logo lounge have been published in bright ideas...
