Designer based in Colorado

Howdy, I’m Caz. I’ve got over 15 years of experience in creative direction and design—which basically means I’ve spent a long time making things look good and make sense.

I bring big-picture thinking, a love of design details, and a deep investment in the brands I work with. I give a damn. Probably too much. I’m not here for performative creativity or recycled ideas. I care about work that feels real—stuff with soul, edge, and actual purpose behind it.

When I’m not building brands or pushing pixels, you’ll find me in the Colorado mountains wrangling dogs, donkeys, and my mule. I trail race with my burro partner, ride horses, bomb singletrack on my mountain bike, and photograph the kind of raw, in-between moments most people miss. I’ve been known to crush a trivia night, hold my own at karaoke, and I firmly believe life is better with a glass of whiskey or prosecco—depending on the vibe.

I believe good design is honest. So here’s some honesty: I don’t have all the answers, but I’ll show up, figure it out, and make damn sure the end result is something worth putting out into the world.

Let’s create something awesome!
