"IF YOU WANT THE OLD ME, GO BUY MY OLD ALBUMS."
- JAY Z



I love music and I'm so lucky to have friends who have a real passion for making music. That can only mean one thing, I'll always have a constant flow of mixtapes, singles, and albums to make visuals for.


From the starting photography to the final product, I work hands-on with a few of my closest friends to make their music pop on screen. Making covers requires a special attention to detail. Spacing, sizing, and colors are only the start when crafting memorable covers.


In a world of fast-paced media, I strive for all of my designs to connect with an audience as quickly as possible. It's also cool that when my buddies eventually become famous I'll be apart of their story.



Cover ARTWORK



IT'S GOT TO BE MEMORABLE



Think about how you listen to music. You only see an album cover for a very short time and if it doesn't stick it isn't a success. Finding the balance of minimalism and making it memorable is always a challenge and these are some of the most successful stand-alone pieces in my whole portfolio.



AT EVERY SIZE



Nowadays we see cover artwork at so many sizes and finding the proper typography, images and assembly of elements that keep people listening is important.
