JAC

I’m currently an Art Director and independent designer, selectively taking on clients and opportunities that align with my core goals and endeavors.

With fifteen years of experience, I have built a client base focused on branding and identity, digital and print graphic design, digital exhibition design, and user interaction and experiences. Throughout this time, I have had the privilege to work with clients from my local neighborhood to across the world. Some of my special projects have been recognized in publications and received awards.

If you have a project or idea you’d like to bring to life, feel free to drop me a line.

get to know me

What initially attracted you to a career in graphic design?

As far as I can remember, I've always been a creative individual. My curiosity and love for art were nurtured from my early years in grade school and continued to grow as I navigated through life's experiences.

What's your favorite design tool or software to work with, and why?

While I once favored Photoshop, my current preference leans towards Illustrator for professional projects and Procreate for personal endeavors. Illustrator is a tool I use daily for any given project or task, while Procreate allows my creativity to naturally evolve and gives me the satisfaction of analog vs. traditional.

Opening event guests (over 100) were visibly impressed with the way the exhibit looked and functioned, and of course emotionally touched by the personal stories.
