About me.

From a young age, I've always known I've wanted to do something creative with my life. When I was younger I wanted to be a game designer, as most video game players at that age did. As I grew up, I took more of an interest in Video production and trying to figure out how to tell a story. I started college with the intent to be a videographer of sorts. While in school I took all kinds of creative classes, but ended up falling in love with graphic design. In these courses I realized that I absolutely loved making designs for "clients" for my professors. I love the creative process of graphic design, starting from loose sketches in a sketchbook or on a napkin to the finished final product. 

To me creativity is about the story, and I'm a sucker for storytelling. Starting with a small idea, and letting it grow into a larger than life product that pulls from the experiences of the designer and the client. Nothing is more satisfying to me than a good ending to a wonderful story.

My story.

I was born and raised in Troy, NY. I attended the Lansingburgh School District for High School, and decided to attend Siena College for my Undergraduate Degree. While at Siena, I had many different extracurricular activities on top of my studies, ranging from being President of the Gaming Club to working as a Resident Assistant. After completing a year of service, I’ve been happily working as a Senior Content Designer at GlobalSpec, throwing axes and studying photography on the side.
