About 

I design 2D/3D objects ranging from basic graphic logos to architectural
spaces in a building. During off hours I enjoy watching and playing all kinds of contact sports, primarily basketball, football, and tennis. Visiting and touring locations that hold some of the New York City’s most famous and innovative buildings and sites is also something I highly enjoy.
