About the Artist
Creative from a young age, my mom always knew I'd be an artist. I grew up in the outskirts of Augusta, Georgia. After high school, I attended the Art Institute of Pittsburgh and obtained a bachelor’s degree with a focus in Graphic Design.
Although the road to becoming a Graphic Artist wasn't always the most lucrative, it is my calling. Through hard work, determination and knowledge gained, the imposter syndrome faded away, I've networked with some amazing people. Attending trade shows and events. Even customers turned friends, have loyally followed me in my career to create for their non-profits and businesses.
When I am not creating flyers, logos, graphics, and power points I am adding to my photography portfolio. Fun fact, I'm a bit of a Karaoke Start; But you'll have to see that for yourself. A side hobby of mine is, that I love to refurbish furniture and up-cycle when I can. (There is no need to add to a landfill when an item can still find purpose in this world. With that, I thank you for your time and look forward to helping you create something beautiful soon.)
Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me. I look forward to working with you soon!
