An art director and design educator who likes knowing why ideas work almost as much as making them look good.​

​

I have a background in filmmaking, graphic design, and motion graphics. Today, I teach at the High School for Innovation in Advertising and Media, helping the next generation of creatives turn their hobbies into careers.

​

I collect old magazines, buy limited-edition snacks for the packaging, and stop to photograph graffiti when I’m supposed to be going somewhere.
