Nice To Meet You.

I have been quite busy lately, working on Amazon Web Services creative marketing collateral. Before that, helping Peloton create two graphic apparel collections. One for Holiday 2023 and another for user Milestones. Also, Art Directing SharkNinja’s newest product launch “The Carpet XPert”.

Additionally, I am an adjunct professor at the Fashion Institute of Technology teaching User Interface specifically in Figma for continuing education in the evenings. Teaching not only helps my presentation skills, it helps my public speaking, amps my technical abilities in Figma and ultimately fills my soul with joy. Seeing my students grow from the first class to the end result of a bangin’ portfolio product is exhilarating. To see the progress and “big picture” is a beautiful thing.

All while this is happening, I completed my third solo art show. This was an enormous personal accomplishment! (I sign my art under the alias DÜPP¥).


To sum it all up, over the years I’ve realized that I’m not the typical designer. And no, I’m not about to tell you something cringe worthy like, “I think outside the box” or how “exceptionally uncommon I am”. On any given day I design, illustrate, manage projects, manage other talent, speak with clients, art direct, mentor other designers or students, constructing marketing strategy, organizing files and sometimes I’m the IT department fixing metaphorical technical fires. With that being said, my passion goes beyond design and I invest a lot of work and time into any project I am working on. A healthy workplace is a collective of collaborative synergy and engagement.
