Graphic designer / illustrator with 25 years of industry experience building, refining, and modernizing visual identities. My background spans logo systems, character-driven branding, and production-ready vector artwork that holds up under real-world use. I specialize in creating bold, memorable visuals from scratch, as well as tightening existing marks so they feel sharper, more balanced, and professionally executed. Whether I'm developing a character logo or refining an established brand without changing its core identity, I focus on proportion, spacing, typography, and clean vector construction. I work in Adobe Illustrator / Photoshop daily and build files the way vendors expect them: organized layers, scalable geometry, and clear export structures. Clients hire me when they need: - Original logo design and brand identity systems - Logo cleanup and modernization (refreshing an existing design) - Clean vector rebuilds from approved visuals - Character and mascot-based branding - Apparel-ready and print-ready artwork - Organized master files with full production exports
