Everybody just calls me “French”

I am a multidisciplinary creative professional with over six years of in-house creative experience. My specialties include (but are not limited to) graphic design, branding, video editing, learning experience design, and creative strategy.

After switching schools a few times I landed at Metropolitan State University of Denver, where I received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Communication Design.

Nowadays I live in Portland, Oregon, and spend my free time cooking with my wife, going on walks with our dog, and doing investigative research for true crime podcasts.

 

My Guiding Principles

Be and look your best

Your “best” is different from day to day, but everyday you should do your best to be your best.

Be obsessed

Be excited about the things that interest you, and pursue those interests relentlessly.

Surprise and delight

Whenever possible you should seek to create special moments that bring joy to others in an unexpected way.

Make it right

Mistakes happen. Accept responsibility, learn from the experience, and fix any resulting problems.

Find happiness in helpfulness

Helping others is one of the best ways to bring happiness into your life. Always be happy to help.

We are in this together

We do not exist in a vacuum. Always consider how your actions and work will impact others.
