I'm a graphic designer and illustrator based in Chicago, Illinois. I came to love the world of design during my preteen years perusing the likes of DeviantArt and Tumblr, where HTML and CSS were the only ways to customize your profile. I soon found myself spending most of my time on those sites not uploading content nor browsing posts made by other fellow internet-goers, but instead learning and applying new ways to step up my designs with the coding languages I had at my disposal. Overtime, I moved away from more complex coding and discovered that I just enjoyed designing in general, whether it was light coding for a blog or designing logos and stationery for a brand. Illustration, on the other hand, was something that stuck with me since early childhood thanks to my dad's side of the family that had an alarmingly natural knack for it (and also from being a huge cartoon nerd).
Presently, I design and illustrate on the side for clientele on social media and hope to make it a full-time gig someday. When I'm not making art, you can find me wrestling with my dogs, looking for the next new food spot in the Loop to obsess over, or piling into my friend's basement for a chaotic game of Super Smash Bros.
