Graphic Design, Visual Ideas and Illustration… these are my passions and strengths. My zeal has always been executing new
concepts and making them happen. This is a daily thing for me whether it be creating digitally or using my hands to produce
beautiful creative sculpted things. Each realm has its own incredible satisfaction and has become one of the substantial pillars in
my life. My career has lead me down a path of graphic design, art directing campaigns, and the agency life with designing
logos, brochures, brand strategies, annual reports, illustration, book design and display sculptures. I’ve always know that
I was created to be an artist and that strong calling lead me to the career direction of graduating from
New England School of Art and Design, in Boston, MA.
My philosophy is that life needs to have beautifully designed elements that better us, communicate well,
surround us, and lift our world for the good. Design and Art is as necessary as breathing air and is a reflection of our soul.
