A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME
"The word timshel—'Thou mayest'—that gives a choice. It might be the most important word in the world. That says the way is open. That throws it right back on a man. For if "Thou mayest'—it is also true that 'Thou mayest not.'" John Steinbeck | East of Eden
I believe only I am the one to have the power to make my life what I wish it to be, and I strive every day to pursue a life of passion and creativity. A lover of music, spontonanity, creativity, and travel, I seek out every opportunity to enjoy and explore this amazing world. I see things with a creative eye, welcome challenges, and have an unlimited view of the possibilities. I hope to use my skills as a designer to make a positive impact on the world. One of the most enriching parts to life is all the amazing people you get to meet and connect with, and hopefully one day I'll get the chance to meet you!

ART DIRECTION: As a current Texas Creative grad student I am currently learning how to turn my graphic design skill and ideation into conceptual campaigns.
ADOBE SUITE: I am skilled in the use of many Adobe programs including: Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, and Premier. I also have experience using Sketch and XD.
DRINKING COFFEE: I think my favorite part is watching the first drop of milk swirl around in the rich blackness. Do I even like the coffee or do I just enjoy not being sleepy? Maybe I should just go to bed earlier...
HTML + CSS: Well I made this website using html, css, and a tiny bit of javascript. I understand the language and work with design mockups for front end coding.
PHOTOGRAPHY: I have taken photography classes and can apply the key concepts of basic photography. Nature, both Macro and Landscape, is my favorite subject to photograph. Every photograph presented in my portfolio was taken by me.
KEEPING MY PLANT ALIVE: I wish I was better at it, I really do. As much as I love all the green things I sadly do not have a green thumb.
