I Help Draw Out the Best of Your Ideas.
Making ideas shareable.
Too many great ideas, organizations and movements die because people have trouble expressing them in a simple, easy to understand way. As a graphic recorder, I help make your compelling ideas easy to understand and shareable.
I use words + pictures to tell the big story.
Words are more powerful when paired with visuals. Visuals are more powerful when words give them context. And that's where I work—in the magical middle, where words and pictures collide and business and creativity flows together.
I am not an artist.
Graphic recording is about ideas, not art. I use images and words to convey complex ideas quickly. And if you need someone who can draw portraits, I can recommend a couple of portrait artists for you!
I am an expert at simplifying the complex.
This comes from my 20 years in advertising. On a billboard, I have to convey an idea in 7 words or less for drivers traveling 75 miles an hour. For a web site, that’s half a second.
Graphic recording and social media aren’t that different. What words and images will best communicate an idea in a memorable way for an audience? What kernel of information will inspire people to share it?
Copywriter > Graphic recorder
As an advertising copywriter, I've always been a visual thinker, writing ads, videos, and broadcast spots. So I guess those years of hanging out with art directors and designers rubbed off on me. I love to write. I love to to doodle. And it's even more fun when I get to do both. It's all about simplifying a message into a compelling, memorable idea.
Making virtual events more memorable, too!
Catch me on the “Gram.
