A bit about me
I've been designing since before I knew you could do this as a career. It started out with hand-drawn t-shirt desgins for my friends and has blossomed into a full-on labor of love! I now have 5 years of formal design experience. Aside from designing for fun, I am passionate about cinema, travel, and music. (If you see me at the Alamo Drafthouse wearing a blanket as a jacket, no you didn't.)
