I live in Minneapolis, MN & will be graduating in March from The Art Institutes International of MN. I have always been interested in art & creating things, but when I was younger I painted a lot more & never really used any computer programs. Today I sadly don't paint as much as I would like to, but I create so much on the computer. I like to use handmade elements through out my design, even if it is only in the brainstorming process. I think that designing & creating is something that you have to put thought into & understand why you are creating & who or what it is for. I create to solve problems & to simplify the communication through visual aspects.

I am down to earth, friendly, a hard worker, resourceful, quirky, dorky, optimistic, pessimistic, addicted to caffeine(but who isn't really). Over all I'm pretty normal & trying to make a living off of what I love to do! Please feel free to contact me for any questions.
