A little about myself

I am a Toronto-based art director with over a decade of experience in designing and developing engaging new media. My main areas of expertise are art direction, social cause engagement and new applications of interactive technology.

Having founded New Media Studio in 2006, I dedicate my time to helping brands, projects and people that attempt to make the world a better place. Over the years I have had an opportunity to work with many individual clients, established brands, agencies and grassroots organizations in arts, culture and non-profit industries.

In addition, I am an armchair futurist, an avid traveller, PADI-certified diver, organic gardener and photographer.
