Bio
Helen Garcia, CSPO
Noah is one of the best Studio Artists I have ever worked with. His work is always on-point, clean and beautiful. When Noah is resourced on any of my projects, I know I have nothing to worry about. He is truly an artist and an all-round great guy. I highly recommend Noah - he would be an asset to any company/project.
Paul De La Merced
Noah is a power house of a designer. I could rely on him to plow through layouts after layouts with minimal guidance. He's a quick learner and has a natural talent designing for the modern web.
Sharon Lockwood
I had the pleasure of teaching Noah in two classes. He is one of the most creative students I have ever taught. Given I am talking about a span of teaching and from the perspective of a professional that covers more than two decades, this is no casual statement. His intelligence and underlying commentary whether empathetic, historical or satire is evident in all his work. His agile design and technical skills far exceed the grade. He is not a mere stylist, he is an explorer and I suspect a pioneer. Noah needs no reference, his work speaks for itself. It's Remarkable!
