After earning a BFA in Graphic Design from Georgia Southern University in 1999, I began working at Great Southern Publishers in Saint Simons Island, GA. Working for them taught me everything from printing presses to pagination to map design to the art of making an ad POP. I was their Production Manager for 7 years before pursuing my own freelance design and I still give them technical support for those tricky map programs.

My most recent adventure was At Your Fingertips Magazine. I handled every aspect of design for that magazine. Unfortunately, it was yet another casualty of this economy. We produced 5 issues before calling it quits....at least until businesses feel confident enough to advertise again.

I am currently working with the Macon's Wedding Ring on their semi-annual publication. I am very excited about this project and can't wait to work with all their members. I am also working with L-eat to design all of their marketing material as well as their interactive maps.

I was recently asked to redesign the logo for the Battle of Byron. Being from Byron myself, I was honored.
