Portfolio

My approach to design is twofold. First, I begin by removing as many graphic elements as possible, leaving only what is absolutely necessary. Next, I structure the content such that it stands with dignity and purpose. The end result is that content, not my design, is what the end user notices. A successful design should be invisible, surrounding but not overwhelming its content.

My influences include Edward Tufte, John Warwicker, A Quincy Jones, and Robert Bringhurst.
