I've taught a variety of courses in Visual Communications (undergraduate and graduate levels); design intro courses, software, typography, color theory, character animation, kinetic type, new media theory, drawing – around 20 different courses – while continuing to freelance, designing for litho and four-color digital printing, variable data print design, identity package and web, social media, etc. In addition to teaching, my skills and experience include: Art direction, design and production in an agency, design firm and commercial printing house.
