MADS, M, MADDOG, NOT MADDIE
(THEY/SHE)
I create and collaborate in the design of user interfaces for the digital environment, design strategy, and interdisciplinary brand expression. In my work, I strive to affect change that improves the quality of life on this planet, and I have had the privilege of working with clients who make real differences in the spheres of culture, non-profit, healthcare, and education.
My approach to each creative decision begins with a founded emotional understanding for a client's needs, along with a goal of my own to bring them meaningfully closer to the audiences they serve.
