I love to create, and I have a passion for teaching and inspiring young designers. Nothing gives me more satisfaction than to see a student or colleague develop his or her artistic abilities and then apply those talents to the marketplace. Equally rewarding is developing and creating classic brands and distinctive collateral at ocreations that not only delivers what a client wants, but also far exceeds their wildest expectations.For more than 25 years, I have been helped companies, both large and small, as well as for-profit and non-profit organizations, build their business and their brands, and it has been such rewarding work. As a tireless entrepreneur, watching ocreations grow and continue to serve more clients has been both humbling and inspiring.Since 1994, I have been instructing students at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, and I also teach at Duquesne University and Chatham University. It’s an honor to be called on frequently to serve as a graphic design faculty member and expert. When your passion is also your profession, you’re blessed. I love my work!”
