About Me

I am a graphic designer from Denver, Colorado with years of experience. I began freelancing in high school and have endeavored to grow in skill ever since. I intend to continue a family tradition of artistic creation and finding creative visual solutions to fit client’s needs.

I have studied at the Denver school of the Arts, CCD and UCD. I have worked extensively with notable brands such as Shane Co. Jewelers, Century Communities and Starz Entertainment. I produced print, web, social, interactive and any other visual content required to promote their brand.

In my free time, I enjoy building and designing custom model kits, playing competitive esports and spending time with my family.
