Sans Patience 
For Sans Passion

I'm a fully integrated designer and art director in advertising with 18 years experience and refuse to be plagued by apathy or surround myself with those who are. Toronto native and currently working as an Associate Design Director for Ogilvy in New York. I specialize in visual identity, print, OOH, digital content creation, and concept development. 

I dig clients with mommy issues but I'm not into kinky shit like PowerPoint and/or Excel. When I’m not pushing pixels or speed dating typefaces, I’m working on more personal projects that keep me from succumbing to ennui and remind me why I’m grateful I never took my mother’s advice to become a schoolteacher.

Also, I have a side hustle writing online dating bios for friends, family, and coworkers. I may even be responsible for a few marriages but refuse to be blamed if/when they end in divorce. I grew up with Italian parents who were very affectionate with one another throughout my childhood, so naturally, I blame them (not Disney) for my hopeless romanticism and endless mission to help others find love and disappointment.

Love & Design are my raison d’être. And my dog Buffy (the Vampire Slayer). I’m kind of obsessed with her.

I also dream in Comic Sans.
