About Me
From an early age, I was always drawing. Filling notebook pages with random lines of color or with my potato people, a name my family gave to my first attempt at drawing people that weren't stick figures. From there, the colors and stories of comic books and animated cartoons from the 2000s captivated my creativity. Using my favorite series or movie as a basis, I began building my storytelling skills and honed what artistic skills I had at that point to begin creating anything I could.

After spending my tween school years learning the cello, guitar and bass, which I enjoyed but had no passion for playing, I returned to art classes in high school and reignited my passion for creating art pieces. I began experimenting with other styles and mediums I was introduced to by my art teachers. Although I had fun exploring other styles, I could never get rid of the black borders I was so accustomed to drawing around people and objects like in cartoons or comic books. Playing to my strengths I began digital drawing, which eventually lead me to consider graphic design as a career choice when my post high school plan didn't pan out.
