  I do freelance contract work for people and companies large or small! I've worked with everything from old school friends and local bands to a burgeoning beer company and a number of departments at my alma mater, Union College (NY). Since I work full-time during the day, I only accept a few projects at a time, mostly from references or clients with whom I have previously worked.
