ABOUT
Hi, I’m Cody. I’m a designer, problem solver, and storyteller. I have over six years experience working with design, motion graphhics, photography, and video production. I’m currently working as a visual designer on the eBay Inc Global Brand Team. I work hard and enjoy solving problems. I love learning new skills and I’m passionate about making a difference in the world. I believe design is powerful. It’s more than just typefaces and colors and pixels. Design is a perspective, a way of thinking, and a culture. I am blessed to be able to do what I love for a living, and I look forweard to what’s ahead.
My wife and I live in Campbell, California. We’re both 27, and work in the Bay Area. We’re planing on raising a family someday, but for now, just a kitten. We enjoy being active – mountain biking, snowboarding, basketball, and yoga. But we also like to relax, play board games, and watch movies. Our life has been an awesome adventure together, and we’re so greatfull for it. Thanks for taking the time to look at my work. Feel free to contact me anytime.
