What I Can Do For Your Company
It’s not always about making something pretty. Its about growing and building your company. My marketing and design resume shows my experience producing logos, layouts, marketing materials and campaigns. I have created work for both domestic and international marketplaces, including the United Kingdom, Europe, Latin America, and Asia.
I have over 10 years providing marketing and design services in the entertainment and digital world having worked as Marketing Manager for the Washington Redskins and Digital Marketing Manager for various artist and music labels. In addition to my expertise in web design, graphic design and marketing, I have moderated numerous panels on online marketing and branding in the music industry.
- Experienced in web site design, development using HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
- Coordinated production of printed literature and promotional materials. Includes vendor interaction, expense control, and inventory management.
- Extensive design experience creating print, web and email marketing collateral.
- Online marketing, SEO, social media and PPC knowledge.
The longer version of the things I do.
* Identity and Brand. Logos, identity design and brand. The foundation of all solid designs is brand. Define the brand and you’re almost there. Stay true to that brand and you’re home free. I’m comfortable defining and designing complete identity systems as well as working within existing brand specs.
* Collateral Design. Graphic design is not just about style. It’s about finding the best way to communicate your message. Advertising, business cards, stationery, media kits, brochures, posters, flyers, newsletters…they all support marketing and sales efforts. I have created print collateral for companies of various sizes and can accommodate your needs.
* Web Design. From concept to code, I strive for clear, unpretentious design with usability always in mind and advocate standards-oriented HTML markup and CSS. Interaction design isn’t just relegated to the web browser anymore. Email marketing is still a channel of communication that’s not used effectively by most companies, web communities provide tremendous opportunity for your message to move itself, and consumers are increasingly connected via mobile devices. I have created sites and maintained marketing campaigns for companies in various industries.
