I am a visual communications generalist and leader. I have extensive experience managing corporate visual communications, marketing and branding. My considerable hands-on knowledge of graphic design, print production, photography, video production, webcasting, 3D modeling & animation gives me a unique ability to "talk the talk and walk the walk" managing creative people and processes.
