Hi, I’m Danny, and I’ve spent the past 15+ years doing what I love most—using creativity to communicate, solve problems, and make ideas come to life. I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Graphic Design and have worked professionally across many creative industries. In addition to my career as a designer, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to teach and mentor students as a college professor. I taught senior-level students in graphic design, web design, and even video game design, both in-person and in online classrooms. My teaching approach is hands-on, encouraging, and focused on building real-world skills that students can actually use.

While most of my experience is with college students preparing for careers in design, I’ve also worked with younger learners in more playful, interactive art environments. Whether leading classroom critiques or guiding one-on-one sessions, I love helping students find their creative voice, understand design principles, and gain confidence in their abilities. My teaching style is patient and supportive, with an emphasis on clear communication and a positive experience—especially when tackling new tools or learning complex programs.

Whether you’re just getting started or looking to level up your skills, I’d love to help you on your creative journey. Let’s make something great together!

Adobe InDesign

I have over 20 years of professional experience using Adobe InDesign for a wide range of projects, including branding systems, print publications, marketing collateral, packaging, and more. As a former college professor, I’ve taught students how to use InDesign effectively—from layout basics to advanced typographic and production techniques. My hands-on, real-world knowledge helps learners understand not just how to use the tools, but why good design choices matter. Whether you're just getting started or looking to sharpen your skills, I can help you master InDesign with confidence.
Graphic Design

Graphic Design

With a BFA in Graphic Design and a career spanning over two decades, I've worked at top-tier design firms and ad agencies, eventually launching and running my own studio. My work has earned national and international recognition, appearing in major industry publications and winning multiple awards. From starting as a Junior Designer to leading teams as a Creative Director, I bring real-world experience to every session. As a former college professor, I'm passionate about helping aspiring designers build strong foundations—and guiding seasoned creatives looking to refine their skills or elevate their portfolios.
