About

I have a business degree and a graphic design certificate to go along with work experience in the retail, construction, factory, business to business, and business to consumer fields. I love creating objects out of nothing whether it is in my garage or on my computer screen. I have completed multiple projects for smaller based clients and I am currently working on a logo and branding project.

I have experience in Adobe CC and working solo as well as in a group setting. I previously completed two projects through The Polishing Center in which we successfully completed three campaigns and a whole brand makeover (logo, website, set, flyer, intro video, ads) for two different clients. I have also designed logos, websites, landing pages, web ads, email layouts, DVD covers, social media ads and much more.
