Company: Inspire Digital Images, Inc
Position: Owner / Creative Director
Culminating 29 years of experience, I decided to offer my skills and services on a full-time basis. My clients range from those that I collected over the years, such as international mission agencies, musicians and business owners as well as new relationships formed with Drake Software and Drake Ventures.
I believe my creative and technical skills have been groomed by striving for excellence over the past 29 years. By offering 2D and 3D animation, video editing, print design and also web design and development, I believe I am capable of handling any creative challenge that a client may request.
One aspect of my career that I believe that has set me apart, is the fact that I can not only produce consistent quality work but that I can also simultaneously and creatively conceptualize strategies and marketing ideas and campaigns. Additionally, my long production
career affords me insight into the varied technical needs ranging from a video shoot all the way to deciding the correct design and mechanical layout choices for different physical mediums from print to web.

Company: New Life Christian Fellowship
Position: Creative Director
My nine-year Creative Director position at New Life Christian Fellowship of Jacksonville, Florida, demanded full use of my creative and technical expertise to communicate the ministry's message through the use of television, print and web. I was responsible for conceptualizing ministry campaigns as well as executing the design, layout and video editing, depending on the project at hand. I utilized 3D and 2D animation as well in various ways to communicate special projects such as show opens for our weekly television broadcast.
Upon first coming on board, I was responsible for a complete church rebrand and anniversary campaign combination, which were received with an overwhelmingly positive response. I believe my season at the church could be summed up by saying that I was able to breathe life back into an already thriving ministry through contemporary visuals and ideas that truly represented a New Life. I was once told by a good friend of mine, Don Potter, who is a world-renowned producer and performer, "Your skill doesn’t add anything to the anointing, but your lack of it can definitely detract from it!" I believe I had held to that very principle during my tenure at New Life.
