About Me

Currently a graphic design student at Delaware County Community College, where I am hoping to jumpstart a career as a creative in an exciting industry entertainment events, immersive environmental graphics, or book design.

I have a diverse history in the Arts community.
When I was young, I was trained on piano, vocals, set and costume design, musical theater, and newspaper editing.
As a young adult, I taught myself photoshop, basic website design, and blog writing. Short stories, music reviews, gaming, cooking, and the joys of parenting were the majority of my blog content.

Hobbies

I enjoy many arts-related hobbies like furniture refinishing, watching anime and foreign films, mixed-media sculpture (including snow!), bartending, cooking world cuisine, singing/songwriting, and costume/prop making.

Eventually I found myself in makerspace, including high-end furniture metal finishing, escape room fabrication, and an introduction to welding and carpentry.
I entertain any skill that can bring imagination to fruition!

History

I have had the privilege of being trained in various forms of creative media, technology, and life experiences. I have had jobs in information technology, hospitality, food & beverage, customer service, fabrication, and teaching culinary skills to children. I am well-versed in electronic music, pop culture, and world culture. My collective experience has me poised to be an interdisciplinary designer.

Events

In 2017, I led a planning committee to host a reunion event for Booker T. Washington Arts Magnet. It was a great success and everyone had a great time!

Music

Before I was a graphic design major, I was actively writing and performing music with friends and musicians I met along my journey.
