Creative. Comic Geek. Storyteller
With over 25 years of experience, I’ve built a career blending award-winning creativity with strategic design across identity, publication, marketing, and digital media. I’ve led art departments at Essence Communications, McGraw-Hill, CMP Media, and Nielsen Business Media, shaping visual narratives that engage and inspire.
Currently, I serve as the Art & Production Manager at RIMS, where I art direct Risk Management magazine and develop digital assets, including video shorts, social media graphics, and email series.
Beyond my role at RIMS, my freelance consultancy has collaborated with organizations such as Jill Scott’s Blues Babe Foundation, Screen Consultants B.V., Urban League (Long Island + Philadelphia), HeartShare Human Services of NY, and the Port Authority of NY/NJ. However, I take on freelance projects as well as one or two pro-bono assignments throughout the year. Just reach out and let’s see how to sync our schedules.
Paying It Forward
Passionate about mentoring the next generation of designers, I’ve taught graphic design as an Adjunct Lecturer at NYC College of Technology, been a past participant in AIGA’s Mentor Program with the High School of Art and Design and being a former Chair of the AIGA Diversity and Inclusion Task Force.
Visit my digital journal, The Industry Color, where I share musings about graphic design and other creative worlds with a special eye towards designers of color.
