Salsa Lisa Packaging
I really understood how important it is to 
work with a client that is smarter than you after working with Lisa. Every suggestion she gave challenged us and pushed the design to a better place.

Plus you really have to try this salsa. 
It’s amazing!

PersonalStop / Shift Project

View the full project here

I started collecting a photo a day in November 2010 as an early New Year's resolution to:

- force myself to use my camera
- open my eyes to the unexpected
- really see the world around me
- change my daily habits and try new things

So far it has done all of those things.
I would recommend it for everyone!
