About
In 1984, unbeknownst to me, I worked on my first graphic design job. I was cutting and pasting images and text onto a blue grid. It was the elementary school's yearbook. I was twelve.
In 2007, after a bout with a musician's lifestyle, I achieved a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Graphic Design from Portland State University. This degree landed me an internship with a local, cottage design firm which then led to three and a half years of agency life. I am currently the in-house designer for a local baker and candy maker. I welcome the next step. -
