About

I am a Designer. I am a self-motivated, passionate, and dedicated graphic designer with an insatiable desire to improve upon myself, perfect my work, reduce my impact on this planet, and to help others do all the same. In a work environment, I am a friendly and easy going, reliable team player whose energy and enthusiasm is often contagious. To an employer I am a diligent, thoughtful designer with a mind for business and a natural servant leadership style who always manages to get the job done well. To a coworker I am a fun, collaborative, team-mate who is a pleasure to brainstorm with and is always willing to help others succeed. To a colleague I am a talented, restless, over-achiever who they can’t help but like because I am unpretentious and generous in my praise of others. To a client I am a receptive and thorough designer who is bursting with creativity and professionalism.
