About Me
I majored in Graphic Design with minors in both Social Media Marketing and User Experience Design until my graduation from Bradley University in 2021.
Since then, there has been many ups, downs, and a lot of lessons learned.
I have a rich love for helping others and making positive impacts on the days of others and working with clients and customers to create positive outcomes. I love atmospheres where I’m pushed to increase my skillset, take on new projects regularly, and have a diverse collection of projects placed in my care.
