ABOUT ME
I have always been passionate about art. At a young age drawing became my favorite thing to do, and I’ve always excelled at it. My love for illustration took me on a path of art discovery, which eventually widened to include design, video and sound editing, typography, 3D animation, motion graphics and more. I received my Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in Communication Arts and Design from Virginia Commonwealth University.
My design process focuses on removing the unnecessary and emphasizing the crucial—resulting in the strongest, most memorable visual communication possible, giving form and function equal consideration.
I support the idea that each business is unique and this uniqueness should be visually represented in a thoughtful manner.
I have worked in various roles involving web, multimedia, interactive, print and television to help companies sell their product, create brand awareness, increase productivity, educate and achieve a better user experience.

SKILLSETS
TECHNICAL / PROGRAMS
Technology, software, and design tools are constantly evolving, and I make it a priority to stay current with emerging capabilities and industry best practices. My understanding of design and development workflows allows me to create effective visual solutions, collaborate efficiently with developers, and deliver high-quality work across digital and print platforms. My primary tools include Adobe Creative Suite, Microsoft Office, and WordPress. Working with WordPress introduced me to content management systems (CMS) and strengthened my understanding of dynamic content, website functionality, and user experience. I combine technical proficiency with creative problem-solving to produce engaging, user-focused designs that meet both brand and business objectives.
