For me, art has been one of the most consistent threads in my life. I noticed at a very young age that something special was taking place each time I had the opportunity to create something. I experience fulfillment, and validation when I launch forward into the development of a new concept. Whether the paint brush or mouse is my companion, I have found enrichment in giving myself to this process.

A mentor once suggested to me that art was the place “where I meet God.” I would have to agree that I do meet God when I embark on any creative journey. While much of my childhood and adolescent years were spent carving out graphite drawings, and pastel portraits, my adulthood has produced a proclivity for graphic design. On a whim during my undergraduate education, I switched my concentration to graphic design from a concentration in painting. I receive personal satisfaction out of capturing in a digital medium - an idea, a goal, a vision - that someone brings to me in order to produce for them something tangible. I count it both a joy and a pleasure to hear the stories that each client brings with them, and how that story is tied into their current personal/professional endeavors.
