Ready for New Work Opportunities, Today, Tomorrow, and into the Future!
I want to be direct-this portfolio will not be a sales pitch with hollow, flashy words or over used euphemisms; it is a creative outlet to describe my design process and show samples of my work. Here I will be able to create a blueprint for understanding my process for present and future clients or employers – setting us up for success, giving ourselves the greatest opportunity of creating productive, long term collaborations.
When I look at the scope of the services I have included in this website, I realize that I have a unique understanding that has developed over 30 years of computer, prepress, and web design experience.There is a lot of thought that goes into good design, for each client’s projects have different needs, expectations, and goals. I live for the whole of the design process; so explore this website and evaluate if I can be of service to you!
You are not here merely to make a living. You are here to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, and with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world. You impoverish yourself if you forget this errand.
~ Woodrow Wilson

Dru has a strong background in technology and web development. I believe he has a passion for it. He has always shown an interest in learning new applications, such as 3D and motion graphic programs.

Dru provides innovative creations using your ideas by just adding his own touch or just creating something on his own. He's done quickly, which only demonstrates just how talented he is. I would use Dru again and recommend him for anyone that needs talent.

Dru is an excellent designer with a great eye on detail. He pushes the envelope and questions the norm. Having worked with Dru for 8 years now, and I still depend on him for answers all the time.

A talented professional designer that I have worked with for 20 years. Dru is dedicated and honest. He leads his design, with an eye on accuracy and attention to detail. Definitely a hard worker and someone you can count on for a deadline.
