Typography.

Illustration.
Graphic design.
Let me introduce myself.
Graphic design is all around us. Not that we truly notice. But perhaps that is the best testament to good graphic design. It exists. It conveys. It speaks. I am a professional graphic designer. I am inspired by nature, antiquities and, yes, even classic cars. I know color and materials, can write copy, and am a paper engineer. Group 33 is my company. Nice to meet you.

Group 33’s design style is classy and refined. But that doesn’t mean stodgy! I design with your ultimate goals in mind. Which audience do you want to reach? Do you want a new logo, to spruce up your corporate identity, or a PowerPoint presentation? Are you a startup with needs you can’t quite define or a growing, established business? Do you need photos to be silhouetted or manipulated in Photoshop? I LISTEN. The solutions we come up with as part of our collaboration will reflect your personality, not mine. And then, as a result, you will be better able to define yourself and your business.
I have worked with law firms, Fortune 100 companies, jewelry designers, interior designers, boutique investment firms, banks, manufacturers, hospitals, and more. Print, digital, online, offline. I do not personally produce everything. That’s where the ‘group’ in Group 33 comes from. After all, it takes a village—printers, coders, photographers, makeup artists, and signmakers. But I do manage each project every step of the way and will always keep you in the loop.
As you can see, I love color. But what you can’t see is that I am a writer. Headlines, taglines, text, summaries, rhetoric—all of it. Early in my career, I realized that copy was not only a crucial part of every graphic design but also not every client’s strong suit to fully develop. I can help you write your story, however brief or extensive it may be, and hone your message to help you stand out from the crowd. Just a little value-added bonus.
