Prior to starting my own design and marketing firm, I worked with Fig. (formerly Advanced Lipo Dissolve), where I helped this medium-sized company become a national brand. During my tenure at Fig., I helped create concepts and executed many of their direct mail campaigns, magazine ads, and poster and billboard designs before striking out on my own. I am a graduate of the Center for Visual Technology and the St. Louis Community College at Meramec. I am an active member of the American Institute of Graphic Artists (AIGA), the Graphic Artists Guild (GAG), the Kirkwood-Des Peres Chamber of Commerce, the Chesterfield Chamber of Commerce, the Webster Groves-Shrewsberry Chamber of Commerce and the Better Business Bureau (BBB).
