Showcase & Discover Creative Work

I trained for two years to be an officer in the US Army. Through ROTC and P/R {The National Society of Pershing Rifles} I gained a sense of discipline, invaluable leadership experience, and the ability to perform with military precision in extremely high-stress environments.

I worked for three years as a design intern with the Lockheed Martin Corporation, and for a short stint with the Rutka Weadock Design Studio in Baltimore. In doing so, I've gained an appreciation for corporate, boutique design, and advertising environments. I currently work for M.C. Dean, Inc. producing and editing multimedia content (photography, video, and audio).

I'm fully qualified to make an impact with any organization that would give me the chance to do so. Read Less
