Iโ€™m Burke Lauderdale, a freelance Creative Director, Art Director who believes that without grit there are no pearls. 

I hang my hat in Austin, Texas and work anywhere planes fly. And thanks to airplanes, Iโ€™ve collected more passport stamps than baseball cards.

And no matter where I am, Iโ€™m always available via burkelauderdale@gmail.com
