What I'm looking for

I’m seeking Senior Designer through Director-level roles in South Florida or remotely, where I can lead revenue-driving brand, web, and campaign work across print, digital, and OOH.

I led the Sun Sentinel Media Group rebrand that helped secure the agency’s first $1M client, while creating high-value sales proposals to win and retain premium accounts.

Over 18 years, I’ve directed brand, web, and campaign design for organizations including Goya Foods, AutoNation, Broward Health, FAU, and DHL. I’ve led creative across print, digital, web, and OOH for 20+ accounts annually, partnering with sales, account, and project teams to support growth.

I build quickly without losing craft through Adobe Creative Cloud and AI-assisted workflows, and I’m actively building fluency in Figma. My work has earned 16 FAME Creative Excellence Awards, including six Gold.
