I am a visual artist and designer with a keen eye for composition, typography, and layout. I am experienced in web development and have developed for clients both domestically and internationally.

I realize it is an understatement to say that communication plays a key role in advertising. Nevertheless, my motivation to pursue a graduate degree in advertising lies with my desire to explore new ways to communicate and interact with an audience.

Today, there are arguably more efficient alternatives to gather and share information than simply by word of mouth. As an undergraduate art student, I spent much time devoted to visual expression. Now as a soon-to-be graduate student, my goal is to explore this idea of effective communication through different media.

My career goal is to be a creative director working with international clients. But I will always remain a student first - continuously learning.

Please get in touch if you would like to talk business, freelance opportunities, or favorite cartoons.
