Art Direction - Responsible for driving demand, margin and profit of product categories by participating in the planning and execution of the selections of merchandise and product. Working through collaboration between creative, editorial, marketing, sales, merchandising, web and social media, public relations and any other partners involved. Processes include strategic conceptual planning and ideation, culminating into visual presentations of ideas in the form of sketches and mockups, followed through with production of deliverables for both print and digital. Extensive knowledge of color correction, image editing and retouching included.
My career has included numerous full-time and freelance positions as a designer for small to large brands, publishing companies from magazines to books, catalogs, packaging, POP displays and collateral advertising. The skills I bring span across the whole production cycle – from concept planning and ideation, to the visual presentations of ideas in forms of sketches and mockups, and the production of print and digital deliverables.
Magazine's worked on: Vermont Magazine, Video Business, Period Homes, Traditional Building and Consumer Electronics Show trade magazines, Children's Television Workshop Magazines.
