Bio

The Full Story

From a tender age, my heart was captivated by the world of creation. My journey toward fulfilling my passion for art commenced with my enrollment in a charter high school, where I wholeheartedly embraced a major in visual art. Armed with the skills I honed during this formative period, I embarked on the next chapter of my creative odyssey at UW-Stout, specializing in graphic design.

 

Originally hailing from the eastern side of Pennsylvania, I made the bold choice to relocate to Wisconsin in pursuit of my college education. My farvor lies in the realm of illustration and crafting captivating graphic designs, which continue to ignite my creativity.

About Me.

I derive immense satisfaction from the art of storytelling through illustrations. Furthermore, I nurture a profound passion for studio art, with painting serving as a cherished hobby. My inquisitiveness in the ever-evolving art world is unquenchable, as I continually seek to broaden my horizons, deepen my understanding, and contemplate the profound impact I can make on society through my artistic endeavors.

 

My aspirations extend beyond personal growth; I aspire to assume a leadership role where I can impart my knowledge to others at the opportune moment. I pride myself on being a high achiever, and my work ethic is characterized by a tenacity to tackle multiple responsibilities simultaneously.
