Journal
A storyteller by nature, creative to my core, I've embarked on my next chapter – a home coming, back to my East Coast roots – to be close to the sea and do what I love.
Chris is a very talented and creative designer. He is both collaborative and task oriented and a master at organizing and creating large editorial documents. As an avid sports fan, he is was a key resource for me while we worked on FAN 590 creative.

Chris and I worked together on several retail accounts. As leads for client contact and creative, Chris and I had to be in sync. Retail is challenging, add in owner/operated to the mix and the deadlines become tighter and the challenges taller. Chris was able to meet challenges with a great flair. Taking away round table brainstorming, the results of his creative were always impressive. I enjoyed working with Chris, being able to laugh when times were stressful helped to get the job done!

Chris has my highest recommendation. He's an insightful, thoughtful, detail-oriented designer who understands how to translate strategy into relevant design solutions. No matter what the client or project, I always trusted that Chris would deliver strong, on-target creative. He's articulate and easy-going, and both our clients and staff enjoyed working with him. Last but not least: Chris is the hardest working man in the design biz! Whether it was long hours or impossibly demanding time lines, Chris always came through.
