Hi, I’m Vin.
Art Director · Illustrator · Designer
I’m a Charlotte-based Art Director, Illustrator, and Designer bridging the gap between creative marketing and illustrative art. With nearly two decades shaping creative in the foodservice industry, I bring ambitious concepts to life. My work ranges from public-facing brands and global marketing campaigns to massive event identities, internationally distributed publications, and a few highly-caffeinated personal projects along the way.
My expertise spans brand identity, illustration, motion, packaging, and 3D, sometimes all at once.
