About Me
I have an undeniable passion for the color orange, and it’s become somewhat of an obsession; if it exists in orange, you can bet I have it. I’m also a big fan of kalamata olives, crunchy carrots, refreshing popsicles, and the classic taste of root beer.
I might be one of those quirky individuals who find true crime stories fascinating. I absolutely adore traveling; I relish the thrill of exploring new places and observing how locals engage with their environments.
Resume
I am a graphic designer, photographer, illustrator and hobby sticker maker. I graduated in 2023 with a degree in Visual Communications. My favorite thing about design and illustration is inventing solutions to the design puzzles I am faced with.
The most rewarding position I have held was as a graphic design intern for an advertising agency that specialized in adoption. I had the opportunity to create assets for families that were hoping to adopt. Unfortunately due to the nature of that position I am not able to share those designs in my portfolio.
