Hello!

I’m a multi-disciplinary, solution-focused designer who strives for clarity and impact.

I truly believe the best work happens in genuine partnership and collaboration.

For years I've worked alongside clients and colleagues to create experiences that transform businesses, processes, and the people who use them. This is the work I’m most excited about.

Skillset, industries, technologies, select clients and awards are below.

"Gary also brought a rare generosity to his leadership. He created space for others to shine, intentionally elevating employee voices, volunteers, performers, and makers.”
