Introduction

Hi, I’m Neil.

I strive to design and develop creative solutions that enable people to perform at their very best. I do this by producing engaging and enriching resources using creative technologies combined with tried and proven methodologies and expertise.  I’m experienced in delivering innovative solutions that serve the training, communication, and performance needs of any organization regardless of size, divisions, or workforce distribution.

I also produce traditional web, graphic design, video, and other creative solutions and have assembled a large body of work including corporate and educational websites and intranet sites, communication and branding campaigns, corporate podcasts, logo design, video production, product photography, documentation design, and many other creative initiatives.
