Hi, I’m Paul …
I’m a Chicago-based designer, art director, and producer who studied fine art at the University of Nebraska and have had a career path winding through both media & advertising.
I provide design & marketing solutions for small businesses, entrepreneurs, agencies, publications, schools, and artists. Sometimes people want a new website but what they really need is a better message and I enjoy helping them get to the root of they want to accomplish.
Having a deeper understanding behind the “why” of any project can lead to things like a better way to present a high-end retirement home, a new messaging strategy for an arts school, or alternative branding experience for a supercar company.
