Fusing Intuitive Design with Business Strategy to Create Meaningful Brand Experiences

With over two decades of hands-on experience, I've had the opportunity to collaborate with a diverse range of industry leaders to refine and amplify their brands, including McKesson, Amazon, PC World, Informatica, Bell Canada, Cisco, Dow Corning, and Pinkberry, to name a few. My continual ambition is to bring brands to life in ways that capture attention, spark imagination, and flourish in the heart of the customer.

In between my in-house roles, I operate as an independent creative and branding consultant, serving clients locally and worldwide. I always welcome comments, questions, collaborations, and opportunities. Please feel free to connect with me via email or explore further on my LinkedIn profile.
