At first, I went into design because I loved art in high school, but after getting my first taste of design education, I became fascinated by solving complex problems through visual communication. Design truly is my dream career.

‍I graduated from Kent State University in May 2023 with a B.A. in Visual Communication Design and double minors in User Experience Design and Entrepreneurship (an amazing design program, I must say).

Throughout university, I completed two internships while working part-time as a graphic designer. Near the end of my degree, I began freelancing and accepted my first full-time design position just one month after graduating.

I continued freelancing for the companies I had interned with while building relationships with new clients alongside my full-time role. A few years later, after reaching an agreement with my employer to continue supporting them as a freelance designer, I made the jump into freelancing full-time.

‍Since then, I've had the opportunity to work across a wide range of industries. I've created everything from visual identity systems and product design to stadium graphics, websites, motion graphics, and marketing campaigns.
