About Me

 

Hello! I’m Ken, I am an experienced Creative Design Specialist who understands the importance of brand recognition and design that communicates in the marketplace. I have a broad range of experience in visual communication, I have worked in a creative design studio, an Advertising PR Agency and as part of corporate Marketing Communications team.

I enjoy spending time with family and friends. Most of all, I love traveling with my wife, my life-adventure buddy. Whether our adventures take us camping or exploring National Parks, I’m always ready to be the official photographer. I can also spend hours in the garage creating and printing on our 1927 letterpress printing press. You may also find me researching the baseball history of the 1920s in Northern California.
