Designer of websites, logos, graphics, video art and product packaging
Case Study: Mobile Video Productions, NYC
Designed several sites and pitches for this client. The original site design was simply in HTML coding; while the latest version is in the highly responsive Bootstrap 4 framework.
Maintain active and comprehensive site and media log to keep relevant work samples up front.
As a website designer for almost 15 years, I have created more than 1,000 pages for my clients. I work mostly with artists and performers. I helped transition numerous mid-career artists from physical portfolios to online virtual representation. Instantly my New York clients could apply for LA work without having to over-night their portfolios. Ok, the file size had to be small at first, but it was still instant.

Historically there has been a disconnect between live performance and video installation. One is generally experienced as a fixed art form while the other is a living one. Over the years, I have explored ways to help those differences disappear as a video artist introducing multi-media elements to performance including live feed, responsive video and integration with sound, light and set design.
OTHER HATS: Video Technician.

There were a lot of firsts on this project for me, mostly involving speaking to German bankers and their technicians about their financial instruments. There was also an opportunity to be part of a product story from the ground up. Between designing the packaging and creating a strategy to take the product to market, this is a project that I am truly proud to have been a part of.
