Graphic Designer & Visual Creative

I'm a Denver graphic designer, and I design for any application. My work spans brand identity, art concepting, and print production and fabrication. Most recently I was the sole graphic designer at Lively Productions, where I built the company's brand system and took event work from concept to install.
