MEASURE TWICE, DESIGN ONCE

From project to project, my driving forces are always the same: understand the client and their goals, establish project parameters, address potential issues before they grow into bigger setbacks, and bring something beautiful into the world.

Since 2007, I've led and contributed to dozens of projects as a strategic partner, illustrator, designer, art director, and creative consultant. I've worked with local and international clients, from ambitious solopreneurs to multinational brands.

MY PROCESS

I ask a lot of questions.

I want the full picture of what's needed and if we're a good fit for each other. All the boring stuff comes first: budget, scope, medium, timeline, etc.

With these parameters in place, we'll get into the deeper questions:
- What are the problems we're trying to solve here?

- What are we trying to say, and who are we saying it to?
- How will the work be used, and where, and how often?

If I've done my job here, a smooth path to the end product is all but inevitable: the single, well-aimed stroke that cracks the problem in half!
