Bob

As a creative professional, I am a problem solver.

I believe that the design process begins by correctly identifying, then isolating the “problem”. Through research and collaboration, a working idea is crafted into a strong concept. The solution is achieved through the smartest, most beautifully possible execution.

Over the past 13 years, my experience as a print production technician, retoucher, musician, designer and art director has equipped me with a versatile skillset and an unwavering attention to detail and execution. I have worked for individuals, small design and motion shops, as well as large advertising agencies and approach each project with utmost care and dedication.

In 2006, I incorporated as BobCreative, Inc. and have since worked as an independent consultant. Most recently, I have been active within the interactive sector, developing brand campaigns across digital channels. I especially enjoy working with new and emerging enterprises to design and help position their company identity. Click if you would like a hardcopy of this résumé.
