PDX Creative Director & Brand Builder

I build brands that feel like they give a damn.

Creative direction, motion, identity, web, and team guidance — all aligned to one unified voice.

    Identity & Strategy

    I help brands define who they are, who they serve, and how to connect the two with clarity and authenticity — turning “founder intuition” and abstract values into clear, actionable direction that aligns teams and creates a unified, trustworthy brand.

    UX/UI & Design

    I create visual experiences that feel intuitive and intentional — helping viewers understand what to do, where to go, and why it matters — without friction or confusion.

    Motion Graphics & Video

    I use motion and video to bring ideas to life — adding clarity, emotion, and rhythm so messages land quickly, feel uniquely cohesive, and leave a lasting impression.

    Development & Dev Coordination

    I bridge creative vision and technical execution — working alongside developers to ensure design intent survives implementation and systems are built to support real-world use.

Portland creative director. 20 years focused on one thing: making sure the work resonates the moment it's received.
