I’m Young, Scrappy, and hungry with a case of synesthesia. This means I hear colours , feel
sounds and taste shapes. I’m all about individuality and expression. Everything awkward and imperfect feels natural and real . I’m passionate about film, music, and comedy. The storytelling element of these industries is where my sights are set. I want to explore the painful comedy of interpreting the world through a designer's eyes. I believe that despite our faults and inadequacies there is still room to laugh. I employ optimism throughout every task I undertake no matter what in order to produce exceptional work. I have a great work ethic, extraordinary work requires an extra ordinary effort
