About Me
I love design. I’ve been doing it ever since I was a kid. Going as far back as elementary school I can recall my note books were always covered in random doodles. I went so far as doing my own graffiti covers to paste on my binders in high school.
In 2004 I enrolled in a full time Multimedia Design program at Fanshawe College. Two years later I graduated and established my career as a professional creative. What’s next? I'd like to work in a fun, creative environment on large scale projects with a focus on experience and new media.
