HOW IT STARTED

The Studio was officially launched in January 2012. I began young – searching the web, finding ways to install the newest programs and learning to design on computers through trial and error around 1995. The internet was still evolving, long before YouTube had instant tutorials and companies offered their programs for subscriptions. There was still guest books, Geocities, hit counters and looping animated flame GIFs. Think Macromedia Fireworks, Corel Paintshop Pro and the like. After years of tinkering – I eventually earned a paid position in 2004 for the Bluewater Recycling Association in Huron Park, Ontario. Over the next 8 years, I gained invaluable experience in many different mediums and formats.

I applied knowledge gained from a Business Degree in Commercial Studies at King’s College in London to realize a unique niche market for small and medium businesses was quickly growing: the need for companies that desired the branding, design and web presence reflecting their mission – at a budget that fell below hiring an agency or recruiting a full time employee. Larger design firms quote too much for many basic services, while local freelance solutions produced low-quality, inconsistent work.

Fast forward over decade later and we have seen success from a simple combination of clean, personal & modern services at a modest price point. In a saturated design market, my goal is to create a direct and sustainable relationship with customers. I value the trust of long term clients, and aim to provide a dependable, flexible and affordable solution.

Our capabilities have increased and widened each year; providing a complete list of services is a difficult task! Please contact me to discuss your unique project. There is a great chance I will be able to handle your requests. I have accrued a trusted network of peers who can help realize any work that is beyond my scope of knowledge. I take transparency and honesty very seriously and will be the first to point out any limitations in a project. Here is a list of services that can be provided:
