Currently, I am the art director in the Office of Communications & Public Affairs at Columbia University. I use visual communication tools such as design, illustration, text, animation, video and photography to help fulfill the university’s mission of higher learning and cutting-edge research by executing a myriad of outward and inward-facing graphic design needs for Columbia. Additionally, I work with Columbia researchers on a number of scientific and technical illustrations for journal covers, presentation graphics, and art for grant applications. I also work with other clients such as Boston Medical, CUNY, Cal Tech, Harvard, and others on a freelance basis
