The average audience’s attention span is just 8 seconds. So when you communicate information, you need to do it in the most efficient and impactful way — with visuals.
It all starts with thoroughly understanding my client’s goals. What message are we delivering, and to whom? Is the goal simply to inform, or are we asking the audience to take some kind of action?
I am a senior graphic designer and 2D animator based in New York with experience in broadcast design, animation, plus digital and print. I thrive at the task of simplifying complex information and displaying it in a way that grabs attention and is easy to understand.
Point 2 Creative is my work from various projects, both freelance and as a full-time employee. Currently, I am a Lead Graphic Artist at News 12 Networks.
I’ve been designing professionally for over 15 years, but my love for all things visual goes back much farther than that. As a kid, I often passed time in class by sketching portraits of my teachers (some loved it, others were not amused). When I am not on a computer, I still love creating artwork on paper or canvas.
