About me
I love everything about graphic design – from the pressure to deliver
a concept yesterday, to the thrill of seeing a client smiling because
I exceeded their expectations.
My commitment to a project doesn’t end at 5:00pm – it may involve
staying late to meet a deadline – it’s all part of the job.
When I’m not working, I enjoy getting out and exploring places like the
Bruce Trail, Escarpment, and the Dundas Valley whenever I can.
Genealogy is also a pass-time. I’ve traced my ancestors back to 1550,
here in Canada, to France, and even Ireland.
