Hi, I'm Chris, a design lead at Ford Motor Company, where I help teams discover opportunities, dream big, and communicate with clarity and creativity.
Here is a collection of some of my non-Ford design work — highlighting select projects I have directed and designed. If you'd like to hear more about my work at Ford, or are interested in hiring me as a freelance designer or consultant, drop me a note.
“Chris is the rare combination of executive translator, strategic thinker, seasoned communication designer and storyteller. I have seen him ignite people and strategies through his craft ... with a level head, strong collaboration, and deep dedication to delivering with excellence no matter the challenge. He is an incredible talent and person to have on a design team.”
SVP, Head of Design and Creative at Tonal
Formerly Lab Director, D-Ford Detroit, Ford Motor Company
“Chris is a brilliant designer who can see the big picture and also cares about the little details. He is also a wonderful mentor and stellar collaborator — everyone wants him on their team. His drive to always be improving and learning has helped him to get where he is today.”
