Hello! Nice to meet you and thanks for visiting my page! As long as I can remember, I wanted to be an artist and have a career doing
meaningful work, helping people, and having the freedom and flexibility to do what I love and keep learning. I have a great passion for learning—whether it’s meeting new people, traveling and experiencing other cultures, food, and landscapes, reading, trying new recipes, or figuring out new skills. It’s often hard to separate work from play because all of it is my life; I call it the “art of living”. I enjoy a good challenge and friendly competition—sports (softball, cycling, pool, ping pong, tennis, etc) or mental stimulation by learning new skills and concepts such as web development, 3D modeling, hydroponics & gardening, and woodworking. I value the documentation of these experiences to find the essence in the learning experience and share and teach it to others. My YouTube channel which I started in 2011 has grown to over 400 videos and 26K subscribers. I have also adjunct taught a couple of college-level classes, Interactive Design & Advanced Photoshop, at my alma mater, Missouri Western State University. After graduating summa cm laude with a BFA in Graphic Design during the recession (’09), I landed a position at a small advertising agency, the Minnow Project in Lincoln, NE, where I gained a foundation of seven years experience and the opportunity to practice design, learn the creative process and communicate my ideas to account managers and clients. In 2010, I accepted the challenge to learn web development which dramatically helped our team and gave me the experience I needed to establish my own business. I’m so grateful for that opportunity and for putting in the effort at a key point in my life. Since 2016, I’ve been operating fully out of my home studio and offering an array of professional services, primarily design and development. It’s a welcoming space where clients become partners and friends who share their expertise with me, so I can craft beautiful, smart, and memorable brands that deliver clear messages to your audience.
