Hey
There, nice to
meet
you.
I'm glad you're here.
As I continue to hone my craft as an artist and creator, I have been studying design and elements needed to produce efficient and beautiful designs for a few years and am constantly continuing that journey. Studying both fashion and graphic design, I love branding and creating visually appealing concepts to go along with brands and companies. I want to contribute my own skills to the conversation and movement seen in these design fields.
​
This is me and what I do. I have been actively engaging myself in both the graphic design and art world as well as the fashion industry. I continue to study towards my fine arts degree in graphic design at Columbia College of Design in Chicago. Below you will find more specifications about my experience as abilities as a designer. This is the face behind the design, and the facts behind the portfolio.
