In middle school, I took my first graphic design class where I started learning Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign along with design principles. In High School, I took higher level graphic communication classes at Fox Valley Career Center where I continued to build my skills and learn areas such as booklet printing, screen printing, and working with clients. In 2026 I will complete my Bachelors Of Science in Creative Technologies (CTK) at Illinois State University (ISU). In the CTK program, I've continued to expand my skills and experience in team/group work, Animation, 3D Modeling, Digital Painting, Web Design, Game Design, and Graphic Design among many other skills. I've also enjoyed doing Photography for a long time and more recently started doing Event Photography. I love taking photos and editing RAW files in Lightroom or shooting 35 mm film on my 90's Minolta camera. During my time at ISU, I've also worked in many areas such as Housing, Orientation, and Co-Teaching.Learn more about my work experience on my LinkedIn and explore my creative projects on this site.

I've created a variety of curriculum for ISU's intro seminars from when I was co teaching them, including the growth mindset worksheet. Investigating college student mental health and engagement lead to some intriguing infographics.
