previous Design Directorselected referencesThe person.
I chose design deliberately.
Growing up between New York and the suburbs of Washington, D.C., I became attentive to the visual language around me — advertising, storefronts, architecture, magazines, public spaces — and to how an image or system shapes the way people experience a brand.
That curiosity became a career shaped through formal study, self-directed practice, Apple Fifth Avenue, and more than six years of brand stewardship at Rolex Watch U.S.A.
A brand should feel built, not styled.
