About Me!
I am a Midwestern designer with roots in Minnesota, where I developed a deep appreciation for plants and nature through my extensive work in greenhouses during high school and college.
My journey in design began at the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire, where I studied graphic communications and discovered my passion for the field. I excel in branding and informational design, and I continuously push myself to explore and master various important design disciplines, including motion graphics, video editing, and UX/UI design. My positive outlook fuels my determination, helping me tackle challenges
head-on. I thrive on the growth and evolution I experience as a designer, and this drives my success in my career.
