About us

I'm launching a self-help/self-improvement business, helping people achieve their life's goals.

What's your vision?

Title: The Perception Myth.    Subtitle: A Guide To Challenging Your Personal Myths And Discovering Your Inner Greatness.             Genre: Self help The book includes personal stories, those of friends, former coworkers and even celebrities. It focuses on our self image and why it may be skewed. And it offers a way forward to achieving fulfillment. Open to objects or landscapes to convey the perception myth. Initial thoughts were of a man looking into a mirror and seeing a somewhat distorted figure. Book size will be 8X6

You Don't Have to Say You Love Me

You Don't Have to Say You Love Me

Client: 99designs Year: 2017 — “You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me” is a best-selling memoir from Sherman Alexie, brimming with personal poems and essays that work through his volatile relationship with his mother.

Hope Street

Hope Street

Client: Rhonda Macken Year: 2018 — Cover for a memoir recounting one woman’s battle with multiple personality disorder. Rhonda Macken was raised by a father suffering from PTSD, consequently triggering her own battle with mental health. The design requires an authentic consideration of the author’s trauma and how her naiveté as a child proved too demanding of her ability to cope. I concentrated around a striking image of a young girl hiding behind a mask. The handle cut across her face originally which made the image look less deliberate, so I moved it off her face to get a clear portrait. Even the subtitle, written in my own handwriting, is careful not to eclipse her presence. What I find so engrossing about this photo is that using a mask is an act of imitation; imitation is significant in child development. In this instance of someone learning behavior, I see an ingenuous girl asking “who am I and is this who I am supposed to be?”
