Artist | Designer | Human

I am a multi-talented artist and designer. I am constantly learning and enjoy a very diverse range of crafts and artistic mediums. I believe that with every new skill I develop I become a more effective artist and human being. I work primarily with Adobe, Autodesk, and Microsoft programs. My favorite program is Adobe Photoshop. My freelance work includes graphic design for small businesses, organizations & individuals. I am an established commission-based portrait artist. I have worked as a graphics specialist and designer for over 10 years. I love my work and I aim to keep developing and applying my skills to bring projects to life. Programs I use Adobe (Photoshop, Illustrator, In-Design & More) Autodesk (Sketchbook Pro, Maya & More) Clip Studio Paint, and many others.
