Intermingled
This gallery is a snapshot of projects I have designed and developed. In order from top left, across: Arts & Ideas Magazine, A&I Community Design, HereBook, The Commons, River and HereLab Illustration. Further profiled below.
My grasp of story, presentation, information is "balanced and tuned," leaning toward a clean, modern line.

Arts & Ideas Magazine
Founding publisher, editor and creative director.
I curated and edited stories/media. Designed the structure and each issue. Laid it out, established "style guide" refinements and managed the printing (Dartmouth Printers.)
Schlepped boxes, stocked racks, broke even. Totally worth it.

Video
Producer, Creative Director, Editor
West Tisbury Public Library
I shot, edited and produced this as part of a successful capital campaign for a completely new (and wonderful) library.
Best Fest
This piece was one of a series called "30 Second Videos," an effort to highlight creators in the Vineyard community. It's kindof self-explanatory.
Ross Gannon's Boat
I heard Ross Gannon, a world renowned wooden boat builder, was about to launch his own boat. I raced down to VH and got this story.
Rose Abrahamson
Rose Abrahamson lived to 101. Wonderful human, still revered.
3D
It's at the Institute for Contemporary Art in Boston. It "hinges" on the ICA's identity design — a "cut typography" that states what's there by articulating what's not. Malcolm Grear's did the donor recognition and signage.

Malcolm Grear Designers
I have had the honor of working in a number of great studios. My "home" will always be at Malcolm Grear Designers in Providence. Great studio, great people.
