I'm kind of a big deal
I’m a Multimedia Creator specializing in Branding, Digital Design, and Musical Audio Production/Engineering but can pretty much handle anything you throw at me. I’m located in Vancouver, British Columbia. Design has always been a passion of mine and I think there is something amazing about creating a brand new concept out of nothing. Whether it involves visual design, branding, development, or multimedia media design, I get excited at the chance to use my creative side. When I’m not designing I’m usually playing guitar, writing music for my band, learning Japanese, or gaming.

What I do
I’ve focused on Digital Design for most of my career. Whether it’s an interactive website, mobile app, social media ads, or anything else involving a screen, digital brings an extra dimension to any design.
I love all things branding. Designing a logo from scratch and then creating a variety of matching deliverables is kind of my thing.
There is just something cool about having your design printed on a physical object that you can hold with your own hands.
I’ve been drawing characters from my favourite games (looking at you Zelda) since I was just a lil’ guy so naturally I pick a career where I sometimes get paid to do the same.
One of my all time passions is music. I’ve always wanted to learn how to produce and mix engineer for bands so I can help them out. I’ve taken that journey and can confidently produce mixes with the best of them. I also do A LOT of video editing so I’ve had to boost those skills as well.
While I mainly stay within design, I also enjoy jumping into front end development, setting up basic sites and styling them with CSS.

As of April 2019 I have left Studiothink to pursue self-employment. This has consisted of various freelance design projects, solo and agency partnerships, as well as creating assets and starting my own side business within the music scene. This has been a very rewarding experience and I have been learning so much every day. I’ve handled things like branding & logo design, packaging design, eCommerce website design, music production/engineering, video directing/editing, branded materials, and more.
I was part of the design team at Studiothink. I handled a variety of projects spanning from creating new brands to designing websites and more. I handled the projects that come in from beginning to end, brainstorming ideas and creating the deliverables. I also pitched all of my work to their clients face to face and sometimes jump in on front-end website development.
I was in charge of the web and design dept and handled all aspects of design including web design, print design, logo creation, general branding and social media. Other notable tasks I handled were managing and creating all the design projects and branding of our internal sister companies, taking part in team brainstorming sessions, researching new design trends and more.
I worked with clients to build their websites as well as other forms of media such as motion graphic videos. I took care of design and development work. I was also in charge of Express Computers’ marketing design needs such as brochures and flyers as well as their social media presence.
