A Bit About Me

I have a huge passion for Design, Photography, and Photo/Video Editing. I am very detail oriented, self motivated, and open-minded. I have been a photographer for about 7 years now, and have 2 years experience in the graphic design field. As a hobby, I also create desert crafts such as wire tree sculptures and cactus skeleton decorations. 

I am originally from Ohio, but moved to Arizona in 2011. Due to the rich atmosphere and diverse landscape, I was quickly able to develop my photography skills and learn immensely. You will often find me outdoors kayaking, hiking, quading, and much more. I have a passion for documenting nature and landscapes through photos and various types of artworks.

 

After graduating high school, I decided to pursue my interest in design, and attend Central Arizona College. I have since then graduated with my Associates Degree in Applied Science for Graphic Design.
