I know the name looks tricky, but say it out loud a couple of times

—bur-jus. Yep, that simple.

​

Now that we’ve got the name out of the way, here’s a bit about me:
 

I’m originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, now living in Central New York.

​

I spent about a decade in HR before switching to design (second-best decision I ever made—#1 was marrying my partner).
 

I’m a proud Bay Area sports fan (go Warriors, Giants, and 49ers), a superhero and fantasy nerd, and a dad to a young amazing artist named Adrian.

 

My better half published her first novel in 2024, with McMillan & Holt, has another coming in 2026, and is already working another.

​

It costs nothing to be kind, but it means everything.

​

And if you’re here, what matters most is this:

 

I’ve been a designer for over a decade, and I love what I do. During that time, I’ve been truly fortunate to work with and learn from some amazingly talented people—so let’s put that experience to work telling your story.
