Ever since I was a kid art and design has been a major part of my life. It encapsulates all aspects of me and what I do. I would spend hours in the art studio after school and work on projects for school or just for fun. These two reasons soon became one where design became school and school became fun! This is when I started to put my life into my designs. Before I realized that my art was really just an extension of myself and the only way I felt that I could express myself in the truest form. While at first I did struggle with the constraints of project rules or limitations I started to become a better problem solver in order to add a bit of myself into each project. A true creative thinker adapts to make their vision work within the rules of design. With each project I work on I become not only a better artist but a better version of myself. There is something always new to learn and to take away from. 

While creativity comes naturally to me this does not mean I do not have more to learn. Art is not linear which allows the artist to constantly grow with current projects. Through each project I find myself finding new ways to concept a design, and create something new that fits into project goals. With the combination of my degree in advertising and graphic design I have been able to experience real world branding and marketing projects, giving me insight into what being a team member in a creative field can look like. My passion for design allows me to look at goals and problem creatively regardless as to whether it is for design, advertising, or merchandising it can be applied to any creative field. I pride my creative thought process for allowing me create projects that do not follow a singular style but rather adapt to different styles to fit the needs of the project. Closing creativity to only one aesthetic strips art of meaning.
