ABOUT ME
Not your average "junior" designer
Not your average "junior" designer
AT 40
I decided it's time for a career change.
Over the last few years I have been searching for something that resonates with my creative side.
I found web design to be great fit for me because I get to use my problem solving skills and my design skills.
My 18 years of work experience and 14 years of art education have given me skills that transfer seamlessly into the world of web design.
From learning advanced art techniques in grade school
