What Makes Me Different?

I started my college career as an art major. I later got my job in the field I was studying becoming a Sign Technician. I took a break from university to focus on my work. Later returning to finish my schooling, becoming an Interdisciplinary Studies major. This allowed me to specialize in creative and critical thinking. Because of my unique experience, I too can help your projects be set apart from the others and help your ideas to flourish.

The Joy Of Design

What I love most about design, is the ability to take raw ideas and turn them into something tangible, something real. As an example, I was given the oprotunity to redesign the entierty of the graduation design and update it to my style. My managment and the president of the university wanted to see what I could make. Over 3 months I did redesign it and I was able to watch the graduating students see an event that got to truley celebrate them. I have never gotten over that feeling of being given the oportunity to give the graduating students a better experience.

My Ideal Client

I'm was always eager to see the jobs I get to help create for the Bo Bartlett center during my time at CSU. getting to see the creativity and eagerness to bring ideas futher. Getting to help add another element to the art exhibits or to simply get to help bring a label and attention to the artist has always been a treat. Getting to work with such esstemed and amazing artists and given the chance to work with Kate Capshaw, that was a truly amazing experiecence. Getting to help her event get put up in a week and to have her be thrilled with what her team had accomplished with my help, I will never forget that. This is what I love from my clients, getting to see them become just as invested in the idea and the craft as much as I do.
