About me
Hey! I’m Rodney. I’m a Design Director based in New York City with over 15+ years of professional experience working in both agency and in-house settings. I am focused on creating high-level visual design that demonstrates a keen eye for detail and visionary approach to design direction.
When I’m not actively pushing pixels, I’m spending time with my boys, Tobey – a dashing Siberian Husky/German Shepherd mix & Twix – a sweet Corgi/Golden Retriever mix, and picking heavy things up and putting them back down at the gym.
