About Me

I’m a graphic designer with over 25 years of experience. I own EFG Creative, specializing in graphic design and photography for performing arts. I’m also the creative director for the Social Symphony of Kansas City, where I also play first violin.

Creativity is how I connect with people. Working together promotes growth for everyone involved. I do what I can to facilitate that growth. I thrive in the space overlapping a concept and its execution. I design with purpose and I bring my designs to life with code, pixels, or ink.

I belong to multiple organizations, including the Freelancers’ Union and AIGA.

Awards & Achievements

I get around.

I’ve won local, national, and international awards and contests for a variety of work, including app design, experiential design, and printed work. I play well with others too! A handful of my awards are shared with colleagues. Some of my notable awards and recognitions are from the Kansas City chapter of AIGA, Design Ignites Change, Adobe, and the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum at the Smithsonian.
