Fairfax, VA, USA
I am a graphic designer who lives to link people to good ideas. My passion is directing the unenthused and uniformed to rich knowledge and experiences. My toolkit includes typography, advertising strategy, illustration, digital photography, and video editing. I'm currently seeking a position where I can mold "Aha!" moments into monuments of engaging design.
