Hi! I’m Dan’l (like flannel) and I am a graphic designer and artist with over twenty years of professional experience in creative design. I live in New York City where I currently work as a Senior Graphic Designer for one of the county’s leading civil engineering, planning, and consulting firms. In addition to graphic design, I’ve worked as a costume and set designer, performer, and showcased personal artworks in exhibitions around the country.

I studied Fine Art at the University of Texas in San Antonio before moving to New York City in 1999. My work as a designer and artist has since taken me around the country — from NYC to Appalachia; Seattle to New Orleans — before moving back to New York in 2022.

Aside from work stuff, I make the bed every morning, cook dinner every night, and never stop creating in those hours in-between.

HERE’S WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:

Five reasons to hire Dan’l:

1. Dan’l thoughtfully explores options when developing concepts.
2. He’s speedy! He can quickly bring a concept to reality with deft software and project management skills.
3. Dan’l always meets his deadlines often before they are due.
4. Dan’l is fun! He’s witty, charismatic and a joy to work with.
5. It will be the best hire you’ve ever made.

When I first saw his work I thought, “Dan’l is the person I want to make my album art.”
He is a very talented and inspired artist and I’ll certainly work with him again.

His work for my film ‘Shortbus’ was simple, elegant and provocative.
Eve ‘Page Six’ took notice.

Dan’l came to Sound Transit and produced highly compelling, unique, nationally recognized creative that helped drive our brand, strengthen the trust between the public and Sound Transit, delight customers into changing their behaviors, and humanize a large publicly-funded agency. We will treasure his contributions forever.

Without Dan’l, my album ‘Doll’ would still be trying to find itself. His artwork for the album was even nominated for awards! The smartest thing I have done is to have him on board for this project. You sit up and you pay attention.
