A Little Backstory
I wanted to brew beer. That’s right. In early 2005 I decided that I was going to, not only start brewing beer, but I was going to open a brewery! I tried, unconvincingly, to persuade my buddies to join in my enthusiasm. Part of my pitch involved a great company name as well as a full line of creative beer titles to accompany my grand vision. The name: Maverick Brewing Company. I had this whole Wild West theme in mind. I sketched logos, beer labels, and even plotted out 60 second commercial ads. We would offer brews such as The Peacemaker, Tumbleweed Pilsner, Showdown Stout, & Snakehead IPA.
I read books. I scoured the internet for brewing tips. I coerced my future best man, to go halves on a home brewing kit, and we got down to work. In my head, I was already cutting the ribbon on the doors to our new brewing facility. But… you know what they say about the best laid plans, right? Well, turns out, I just wasn’t that into the whole brewing part of beer. I did however, learn something about myself on the way. I really dug the whole marketing aspect of that ill fated venture!
I’ve always been an idea man. I love conceiving of clever slogans, tag lines or product names. That, paired with my love of illustration compelled me to turn my full attention to the field of graphic design. I started attending design classes at Buffalo State College, and in 2007,
wait for it…
Maverick Media was officially open for business. Since that time I have had the pleasure of working with clients from many industries and from all walks of life. For me design is not just a job, but it’s an absolute guilty pleasure.
I love having the opportunity to work on such a vast range of projects for my clients. From web design to children’s book illustration, I view each job as a Win/Win for both me and my customers. My customers get a professional product, and I get the sheer joy that comes from the design process. I live in the details. Your project, is my passion. When you make the choice to work with Maverick Media, I can assure you that you are not just another paycheck. I put the time in on every project that comes across my desk, and nothing makes me happier than delivering exactly what my clients are looking for.
