a little bit about me.
I am a recent graduate from Grand Valley State University (anchor up!) with a major in studio art and emphasis in graphic design. I’ve loved anything to do with art ever since I was a kid— when I learned you could do it as a job (shoutout to my high school art teacher), my world changed completely. Throughout my years at school and into my early career as a graphic designer, I fell in love with creating aesthetically engaging pieces, bringing stories to life, and leaving an unforgettable impact on the viewer. Wether its through a web experience, social media graphic, or a physical print piece, I strive to create that connection point with the audience.

and even more!
Outside my professional work as a graphic designer, I love to spend my time reading a good book, either in a camp chair by the fire or cuddled up on the couch with my cat. Most weekends, I find myself trying out a new baking recipe, always having a little bit of the raw batter, and always making an absolute mess of my kitchen. Whatever it is I find myself doing, my friends and family are typically right there with me, around the fire or enjoying my latest sweet treat
