My name is TZ. I am an art director, publisher, professional artist, graphic designer, web designer, and educator. My professional design career spans 30 years and started in New York City where I worked as a freelancer and senior designer for several design studios, ad agencies, and publishers. My design experience and skills include illustration; print design; web design; interactive media; computer animation and creative design and art direction for major corporations (AT&T, Merrill Lynch) State government, design studios, higher/adult education programs, and the private sector.

Feel free to ask me questions at anytime, I am always willing to share what I know.
