Exceptional graphic design, illustration, and creative artist in Las Vegas, Nevada.
About Me
Design is my life. In high school, I began learning the technical aspects of design. I continued creating art for fun while in the US Army. In college, I became a leader in design as the AIGA student group president. My design career started in a small advertising firm, bringing me experience in fast-paced, top-quality creation. Currently, I work as an in-house designer for an international company, focusing on the car wash market.
Design might be my life, but there is life after work. For fun, I paint, play video games, read comics, and budget my paycheck. On the weekends you can catch me visiting friends and family, washing my car, or doing something else. I love getting Happy Meals just for the toys.
