My collective experience encompasses many disciplines, the focus being on the creation and deployment of digital
communications. There has been a seismic shift in the way we take in information. Content needs to be atomized,
distributed and reconstituted in meaningful, highly accessible ways in order to compete with the amount of digital
noise out there. Over the past 6 years I have worked in the biotech and pharmaceutical industries delivering art direction,
strategy, design, marketing and communications in a variety of media. I have worked on several launch brands including
directing a global launch this year.

I have been working to create new ways to connect people in this brave new digital world in which we find ourselves.
Its not just about digitizing print assets but rethinking the entire engagement approach. I have many years of experience
designing and prototyping interfaces across multiple platforms while working closely with programmers to develop beautiful
context based solutions. I believe the future of digital will rely heavily on customer centric technologies and predictive
and big data analysis. I have also have experience designing interfaces for several immersive VR and gaming experiences.
I believe it's an exciting time to be working in this space as a designer with new products and services being digitized everyday.

Also, responsible for applying advanced and diversified concepts, cross category product story understanding,
theories, principles, practices and insights through high-level design and reinforcing these principles within the team.
I may work on cross-categorical projects that include creating design, supporting design or creative initiatives and
innovation that advances the design image. I communicate the design vision, results, and stories to a variety of
audiences (internal/external) informally and at a high level. I have over 15 years of experience in the industry with
many high-level client relationships.
