Graphic Design
I am a seasoned graphic designer with over 25 years of branding and marketing design experience. I've worked with start-ups to large well-known companies spanning a range of industries and projects. I spent over ten years as an in-house designer for a notable sports event marketing company. I was designing on various projects, including apparel graphics, logo design, website graphics, social media marketing graphics, and print advertising graphics for a wide range of brands and sports events, including ESPN, X-Games, and NCAA sports events.
I'm currently enjoying being a brand designer for the nation's leading Food & Ag consulting and accounting firm; and the official event logo and "merch" designer for Heartland Soccer Association, the largest soccer league and tournament host in the United States.

Testimonials
"Teko has been an invaluable asset for The CBE, NABC and National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame. His apparel designs and marketing graphics have proven to be winners for our CBE Hoop Shop (retail store) by helping sales increase significantly over past several years. Working with Teko is effortless and seamless. He’s a true professional who operates with integrity, creativity, and a willingness to ensure the client is very satisfied at the end of the day. In addition to Teko’s work with The CBE, he was also commissioned to create all logos and (apparel) designs for a national education campaign, Stay In To Win, a program founded and operated by the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) to discourage high school students from dropping out of school. Simply put, we have been very satisfied and have enjoyed our relationship with Teko since day-one."
