Hi, i'm Sean, A Graphic Designer
from Kansas City.

I have been in the design field for fifteen years. My expertise is in print media and web design, however I also have experience with photography, audio editing, post production video development and email marketing. 

I have three passions, my family and friends, graphic design and collecting vintage video games. Some other important things you should know about me are that I like pizza more than a person ever should, I will never say "no" to looking at pictures of animals wearing hats, and no one can guess my ethnicity. Finally, we are the same height and that is neat.
