WHO’S GARY?

Just a guy who has spent his career helping brands know who they are.

A guy who plays music, makes art, and believes creativity is most powerful when it brings people together and gives them the confidence to make something of their own.

A maker at my core and a design leader by practice…

I build brands, products, and experiences that help organizations express who they are with clarity, consistency, and emotional resonance. For more than two decades I have shaped work across digital platforms, brand systems, and creative strategy — from university-wide initiatives at Boston University to enterprise experience design at Verndale, along with independent projects spanning tech, retail, cannabis, fashion, consumer goods, and the arts.

I believe creativity is both work and a way of life. I lead with empathy and collaboration, creating environments where designers, engineers, strategists, and partners feel supported, confident, and able to do meaningful work together. My focus is always the same: connect strategy with execution, align brand and product, and design experiences that serve real people while strengthening the organizations behind them.

I am a maker who creates to help others create — and I bring that mindset to every project, every team, and every challenge.
