Atlanta just needs to keep up the work, There has been lots of great stuff happening lately. Coming from Providence, RI where there was a concentrated arts community has been a big change for me. Everything and everybody is so spread out in Atlanta - it’s hard to tell what’s going on here.

Work Experience:
I am a recent graduate from Portfolio Center and I’ve been busting my ass while in school trying to do good work. Over the past two years, I’ve interned with Unboundary and Armchair Media, and I’ve been laying the groundwork to start my own company, Epidemik Coalition, with my partner in crime, Georgios Saliaris. We got our start doing hand-screened tees and posters. With some good press and encouragement from our mentors, we decided to bite the bullet and start our own design shop. We’ve been operating as a branding and identity company for about a month, and most recently we have been working on Project Fourt with Wade Thompson and Megan Huntz at Coca-Cola HQ. We haven’t forgotten about the tees that everyone loves and now we use them to help gain awareness for our design work.
Stop by our new studio sometime! We’ll show you around…
Clients you’ve helped:
Coca-Cola, Three Thieves Wine, Rehab, Cartel, ATL Modern, Marie Marie Salon, Menes Productions, Standard Boutique, Will Scruggs Jazz Fellowship, C.C. Booker III, Garrett Moore, Wes Funderburk, Octane Coffee, Fly $ociety, and Demun Jones.
What do you think needs to happen for ATL to be respected on a worldwide creative level?
Design-minded people need to embrace what Atlanta has to offer and stick around. Everyone always treats Atlanta like a step on the path to success instead of looking around and taking advantage of all the opportunities Atlanta has to offer.
