Who am I?

I am a 24 year old designer living in Arkansas, the hot seat in the world of design (catch that hint of sarcasm?) but really its a beautiful place and full of inspiration.

I am a mild mannered “Junior Designer” at Arkansas Business Publishing Group by day, and a very passionate freelancer by night.

I strive to create and inspire. As a “creative” I feel that is my job.

What do I do?

Well i do a lot of things actually

My goal is to be a well rounded designer, to accomplish this I take pride in understanding as much as possible in the different areas of Design.

I try to create meaningful and beautiful things for people to appreciate or try to relate an idea to a viewer across all possible platforms, digital and traditional.

I do what I do because its my true passions in life. I consider myself extremely lucky because I have found that thing in life that I can escape with. It works out great for me because I can make a living doing what I am passionate about.
