I grew up in the shadow of Mount Rainier in a small town in western Washington, where hard work, honesty, and small-town values shaped who I am. My parents adopted me as an infant and gave me a childhood full of opportunity, faith, and encouragement to chase big dreams.

When I was just a few months old, my parents bought a little ranch outside of town. Horses were my mom's lifelong dream, and before long they became mine too. I grew up around boots, buckles, dust, diesel, and long days that taught me the value of showing up, working hard, and earning people's trust.

While my career led me into engineering, diesel mechanics, operations leadership, and managing large teams, I found myself drawn to another passion: helping businesses tell their story. I've always believed the best brands aren't the loudest—they're the most authentic.

That's what Bangtail Studios was built to do.

Today I specialize in creating clean, modern websites, memorable logos, and social media strategies that help western businesses and small companies stand out without losing what makes them genuine. Whether it's building a brand from the ground up or giving an established business a fresh identity, my goal is to create something that feels timeless, approachable, and unmistakably you.

The western industry has always been built on relationships, reputation, and trust. Your website and brand should reflect those same values. Every project I take on is designed with that philosophy in mind—combining thoughtful design with practical marketing that helps your business grow.

Thank you for stopping by. I'm excited to learn your story and help you tell it well.
