Tool Box

I've been around

I have been working in the field of marketing design for over 15 years helping teams  communicate their products and reach their market more effectively with a rich, diverse & constantly updated design tool box. As part of this journey I have been managing projects and visual content  in the fields of design and innovation at leading institutes such as The Porter School of Environmental Studies Tel Aviv University, Israeli Green Building Council & at The design school of the College of Management Academic Studies. Parallel to my design skills & services I am teaching and mentoring design courses and hands-on workshops for over 13 years at leading design academic institutes. 

I am always happy to meet new people, study new products and join the ride bringing in my experience, design tools and perspective. I believe that establishing a good, reliable lasting relationship, is a key factor for both the design process and effective results. 

How do you want us to work together?
