As I have developed a personal design style throughout my college career, I have learned to use intense, creative talent and ideation while evolving through the design process and matching those ideas with technical skills, craft, and functionality. With a background in Fine Art and Graphic Design, I have been led to a greater understanding of technology as well as the perseverance and dedication it takes to create inventive yet functional design. I am rooted in my artwork; a skill that has opened my mind to erase boundaries that block originality in design. This gives me the edge that I need to create the spaces that I have always envisioned myself designing. I want to create the types of spaces that set the curve on what is new and innovative in design, and in order to build these types of spaces, I understand that using cutting edge technology and practicing successful business techniques are imperative.
