Highlights

Good design is about facilitating communication. Paramount to Align Visual Arts & Communication is learning what you and your company need and translating that into dynamic material that communicates directly to your target audience.

As the owner and creative director of Align, I have had the pleasure to work with a variety of clients large and small. I have worked on more than 40 books for international book distributor, Baker & Taylor, developed several ancillary products for Portable Press (whose Uncle John series reaches hundreds of thousands of readers), and designed booklets and brochures for Ashland (Oregon) School District.

But as a small business owner, I'm particularly sensitive to the needs of other small businesses. I go out of my way to really get to know a company and discover how best to represent it visually. I value collaboration and work closely with my clients to make sure they're getting exactly what they want and need.

In addition to branding, Align creates beautiful, eye-catching collateral materials. Several of our print ads have been in national publications (e.g., Informart, Veggie Life), many of our designs have been to trade shows, and several package designs line the shelves of shops nationwide.

Our favorite recent job, is the Ashland Food Project. We donated the logo, brochure, and bag design to this new volunteer food collection organization. In six months they've collected 10 tons of food for their local food bank!

Work Terms

Payment Terms
I prefer to work with clients who use Guru's escrow service. However, if they'd rather not, I'm willing to let that go—but I'll begin work only after receiving one third to one half of the agreed upon payment (depending on size of project) via check or PayPal.
Communication
Client are free to call or e-mail me anytime with questions and concerns. However, you'll have a greater chance of reaching me in the afternoons and evenings PST.
I prefer to have our initial conversation via phone. After that, I prefer to communicate via e-mail, unless an in-depth discussion is needed, in which case, a phone call would make more sense.
Agreements
I'll send you a proposal (estimate) based on our initial conversation. If the proposal is acceptable, I will provide a contract based upon my understanding of the terms of our conversation. I'm more than happy, however, to look over and sign a contract you provide, if the terms are acceptable. I will also invoice you based on terms delineated in the contract.
