In My Own Words
As an artist originally trained in Fine Art, nearly every graphic design project I begin starts with a sketch in a Moleskine. I have a passion for design and find pleasure in taking a rough idea and polishing it to a beautiful, clear, and concise message. My skillsets include; web design, UI design, html & css, magazine layout, and print design--along with many others. As a resident of Orange County, CA, I find insipiration in the scenic beaches and mountains that surround me--not to mention, the people are some of the most interesting and diverse as well. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page!
