General info

Toronto ON

Who I am, briefly:

A senior art director with a tonne of experience in print DM, and a solid foundation in digital & interactive; I thrive on challenge and love getting my hands on a new client. My area of greatest expertise would probably be automotive, while my passion would definitely be not-for-profit. Really though, I m happy working on most lines of business, especially if my work gets to live both on and off-line.
