Profile
Ever since I was a kid drawing cars on construction paper, I knew a career in the art field was in my future. It goes without saying, that art was my best subject in school. When I entered college in 1993 and discovered graphic design, I felt right at home. I got a better understanding of graphic design theory and how I could use it to help people communicate their ideas.
I've been a Graphic Designer for more than ten years now. Graphic Design is my love. I love the whole creative process; the research, the brainstorming, the sketching, the communicating, the design and the psychology. It is very rewarding, and I'm truly blessed.
My years of experience as a freelance designer and Senior Art Director at Powell Creative have given me the tools to help fuel my creativity.
