- How did you get in this business? In High School I found I spent most of my free time doing creative things – drawing, photography, painting and the like. Its what I had the most interest in and I did it well. When I needed to pick a career direction I was only motivated to pursue design & creative related options.
- What do you like most about being the owner of HBN Brand Design? A very hard question to answer, I guess to be in the position to try help others – For the HBN staff, trying to help advance personal development where I can. For clients and their project needs, being part of the solution from a strategic point-of-view and the fun creative part. Seeing how well our creative works on-shelf and the contribution it makes to our clients is what brings the most satisfaction to me.
- What was your favorite toy growing up as a kid? My bike – I rode everywhere, covering some pretty long distances. Because of my bike I was able to explore new places and seeing new things. I was also enabled to get involved with some very imaginary play.
- What do you like to do outside of work? Drive fast (mostly on a race track), anything outdoors – hiking/backpacking/canoeing/gardening and photography.
- Do you have any stupid human tricks? No! I don’t have any smart ones either.
