About me
A summary of my creative life.For as long as I can remember, I was always drawing or doodling on anything I was working on. When I was a kid, it was on homework and throughout class. As I got older and started high school, I seemed to be known as an artist. I started taking art, drafting, architectural drafting, CAD, and 3D modeling classes. I think taking all of those really helped me realize, I wanted to work in some visual career.
I enrolled in the Art Institute of Pittsburgh for graphic design and I knew I was right with my choice. I met a lot of great people throughout college and looking back on it now, I can see how each of my close friends helped shape me as a designer. I met my wife in the graphic design program and we have been married since 2011. Having a spouse in the same field as you, is a great way to continue to learn and grow in your skills. Since moving to Ohio, most of my design jobs have been centered around sign businesses. There is something quite gratifying about seeing something you designed on screen, in it's finished form out in public where thousands of people will see it daily. If you would like to know anything else about myself, please feel free to message me. |
