About Tim.

With my in-depth background in both the design, branding, and marketing fields, I bring to you

10+ years of design experience. With a multi-disciplinary design approach including graphic design, 3D design, interior design, architecture, engineering, digital and UI/UX design – all are executed with impeccable attention to detail in print and digital production, fabrication, and installation.

In 2D, 3D, and “4D” design, I dream, design, develop and deploy campaigns connecting creativity, business, and people. I like to move people - products, stories, events, experiences, and businesses. I am a designer. But within that is bundled a creator, inventor, visionary, and storyteller.
