I gave it a shot. The design world is tough business and I’m just not cut out for the fight. I’ve decided to leave the world of freelance design. It’s not worth the headache and fight to keep work coming in. I’m to old and tired of the fight. What I thought was going to fulfill a dream of designing has turned into a joy sucking abiss of uncertainty. At this point in my life I need a 9-5 I can count on. I’ve worked on some great projects worth millions but still struggle to find work so here is where I say goodbye and reserve my talents for people I can trust and respect. Wish me luck.

The culmination of five years of work, a project I've been devoted to will soon come to fruition and has been featured with my computer-generated imagery in an article.

A historic Utah cannery that was purchased and moved — brick by brick — to save it from demolishment, is scheduled to open in its new location this month.
