I am a graphic designer with experience and proficiency in print, web, HTML email production, multimedia/motion graphics/video, voiceover, and audio editing.
When Dead Sled Coffee approached me to design not one, not two, but three coffee bags for the hottest band in the world (with the hottest drink in the world ) they picked the right guy for the job. Drawing KISS’ iconic logo, makeup, and costumes on my notebooks since I was in the 5th grade made them the one client whose brand guidelines I didn’t have to check before starting the work!

Rob was not only very hands-on with the development of what went inside of his Dead Sled coffee bag but also with what went on the outside. He provided amazing illustrations from artist David Hartman for me to incorporate into the packaging design, and also recorded original music for the video promo that I created.
Established in 1947, National Jets were looking for a branding update. I cleaned up the illustration and typography on their existing logo, established the color palette, and then tied the updated design into their business cards, trade show booth, and lanyards, and continue to manage their brand throughout all of their promotional materials.
A lot goes into making the emails that you receive look their best on whatever device and application you are viewing them on. Watch the demo below to see four client-provided designs that I coded and tested.
When Rock City Angels’ lead vocalist Bobby Durango asked me to design a logo for him the only direction he gave me was “I want it to convey that we are rock n' roll revolutionaries!”. After kicking the idea around for a bit it dawned on me — who is the most iconic rock n' roll star and the most iconic revolutionary? Elvis Presley and Che Guevara. Thus, Chelvis was born.
