I create visual media for those that need it. Or want it. Or just like it. Photos + Videos + Strategies. I work with companies of all sizes to execute creative media that puts eyeballs on messages. This is the craft I've chosen to devote my career to perfecting. I bring that passion and expertise to your company, so your customers, clients, and community engage with your message. I've worked on the inside as a corporate creative for the Federal Reserve, and I've worked for a lot of agencies creating content and media that drives attention. Since I've worked both sides I can bring a sophisticated overview of how to best create the media you need and truly create the media you want! Looking forward to working with you!
