klumppcreative | art direction design production

Graphic Design and Production. Art Direction. Fine-Art-Illustration-Voice-Overs-3D-AR-VR-Audio-Video-Editing-NFTS….there are a lot of talents and skills that I have developed while involved in my creative career. It started early – doodling in grade school – and it moved through formal art and design training and university, then becoming my career in advertising and marketing, and continues today with both traditional and digital interests.

I like to constantly stay challenged and expand my artistic perspectives as well as my marketing acumen. This translates into bringing my clients more than the ordinary – while constantly ensuring that things stay clearly communicated, on time and in budget.

When not engaged in marketing and advertising design considerations, you may find my out on the roads – riding one of my motorcycles, traveling and learning about other people and cultures, or just spending time with family and friends. That’s who I am.
