Nothing inspires, engages, and retains loyal customers like a great brand. And without great design at the core, the sheen of weak marketing evaporates more quickly than ever. For nearly 20 years I’ve led brand identity projects, taught and mentored juniors, lectured at OCAD University, and built winning identities for clients such as Toronto FC, the Toronto Marlies, York University, and RIM Blackberry. I’m now looking for the right agency and clients to deepen my impact on the legacy of Canadian design.
