I was born in the wagon of a travelin' show. My Momma had to dance for the money they'd throw...hold on, that was someone else.
Half-designer! Half-illustrator! Half-a-mind to admit it. Expertise in graphic design, layout, print materials, large and small projects. Worked as an Editorial Artist at The Orlando Sentinel doing breaking news graphics; WESH-TV (NBC affiliate) News Artist; WHERE Orlando Magazine designer; Universal Creative in Orlando, FL as a presentation designer (books and keynotes) for: Wizarding World of Harry Potter; Hogwarts; Shrek; The Simpsons; Fear Factor; Kong!; Sponge Bob and more. I've worked on countless reports about homelessness in Central Florida. I've also designed tiny projects like business cards and fliers. May seem small to you, but not to my clients. I love a challenge but I can't stand in a hammock. I've performed and written a TED Talk called "The Awe of Awesome" that was also part of their "Best of TED" for 2014 and I've performed and written two Pecha Kuchashows in Orlando. Written one-liners for Joan Rivers and Carol Leifer and have been performing comedy since the late 1800s. Thank you for your consideration, now on with the show!
here's some of my stuff

Art direction, graphic design and layout for Barbara Poppe & Associates for the city of Jacksonville, FL. A few page spreads and infographics from the book are shown. I've designed and layed out numerous reports for the Central Florida Commission on Homelessness too.

For many years I worked on the SEPC (Southeast Produce Council) and the Viva Fresh Expo collateral materials.

Forget about the future, you can't predict it.
Forget about the present, I didn't get you one.
Happy Birthday!"
