A LITTLE ABOUT ME…

I was born and raised in the vibrant city of Las Vegas, Nevada. My love for art started when I was a kid, constantly finding creative outlets to express myself. That passion for creating led me to pursue my Associate of Arts at the College of Southern Nevada, where I honed my foundational skills in design. Soon, I’ll graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Graphic Design from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, which gave me the tools and knowledge to turn my lifelong love for art into a career. I’ve always been fascinated by the power of design to communicate, inspire, and bring ideas to life. Now, as a graphic designer, I’m excited to continue this journey, combining my passion for creativity with the technical skills I’ve developed along the way.

ARTIST STATEMENT

I’m a Graphic Designer with a passion for branding and its power to shape perceptions and create lasting connections.

My goal is to translate a brand’s core message into a visual language that is striking and innovative. Through research, collaboration, and creative exploration, I bring brand identities to life in meaningful ways. I strive to craft designs that leave a lasting impression and elevate a brand’s presence.
