A LITTLE ABOUT ME
BACKGROUND:
I entered the world of art and design thinking I would be famous for my sketches one day. Eight-year-old me had big dreams and no idea that I would be switching to the digital arts on a frustrated day in March of 2015 when I didn’t like any of the invitation options online for my kids’ first birthday. I started dabbling in graphic design and the Adobe applications soon after and fell in love. That love has grown beyond just creating what people ask for and into creating work that is lasting and beneficial to individuals and businesses. I started an accelerated program in November of 2021 at Full Sail University to enhance my skills and learn beyond the online tutorials available and obtained my Bachelor’s of Science in Graphic Design in March of 2024. I am taking some more focused courses on multimedia storytelling in January of 2025. I am constantly learning and growing and dedicated to paving the path that my 8-year-old self had in mind.
CREATIVE APPROACH:
I approach each project as a unique challenge, embracing the opportunity to experiment with colors, shapes, typography and beyond. My goal is to not only meet your expectations but to exceed them by bringing a fresh perspective and a touch of innovation and personalization to every design.
DESIGN PHILOSOPHY:
I believe that design is not just about making things look good; it's about communicating a message effectively. Whether it's a sleek corporate brand, an eye-catching poster, or a user-friendly website, I strive to create designs that not only captivate the audience visually but also leave a lasting impression.
WHAT DRIVES ME:
I find inspiration in the challenge of taking words and ideas and turning them into successful, lasting designs and I believe that the key to great design lies in a combination of passion, dedication, and a keen eye for detail.
