I'm Blake, and I design visual experiences.
Let's create together!
I began my career in the fast-paced world of publishing. I oversaw the production of 250+ color, glossy consumer magazines, which ended up being more than 12,660 carefully crafted pages.
After 8 years as graphics director, I moved into the digital design realm for several years, working for a top-10 global insurance broker in the fintech space.
My two greatest design strengths are typographic layout and dynamic compositions. I'm trained in modern design philosophy, which has served me well throughout my career. I love clean vector illustrations and simple visual storytelling. I pride myself in listening carefully to a client's ideas so that, together, we can realize our combined vision
I have developed many other skills along the way, such as project management, text copyediting, CMS management (WordPress), animation, video editing, coding (such as html, css, JavaScript, and C#) and more.
I use all of these tools to create fresh and eye-catching experiences across many visual platforms.
I'm a chill guy from the Midwest, living in Wisconsin. While Graphic Design is my No. 1 interest, my hobbies include game development, writing, drawing, ping-pong and tennis. I am a massive Nintendo fan, and enjoy watching good film and comedy tv shows. I am always looking for opportunities to develop technical skills and to explore new trends in the industry.
