"Creativity is just
connecting things"

—Steve Jobs

Creative. Visual Communicator. Content Strategist.

I've worn many hats as a "creative" overlapping several design disciplines from the aesthetic to the technical as well as leading and mentoring. I've seen design trends evolve throughout the years more so digitally with the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT). The designer also has to evolve, expand, and adapt. From print marketing to responsive web and now UX/UI, design has found a way to stay relevant and so must the designer.
