MY MISSION:

To create a graphic brand and/or a web presence for individuals or businesses who help others live a greater way of life.

The moment I realized I wanted to be a graphic designer was life changing. I was always interested in art and drawing but to visually communicate ideas constantly intrigues me. Since I can remember, I would look through magazines, flyers, postcards, etc. and be drawn to the design and feel of the pages. Web Design took me by surprise. I started noticing more and more sites that caught my curiosity and thought, “How did they do it?” Drawing inspiration from typography, photography, websites and the environment around me, I create likenesses from a combination of strong shapes and traditional clean grid-oriented details that capture the eye. My mind is always buzzing full of ideas for current and future projects. The best feeling in the world for me is looking forward to what I can create by developing my ideas. I was awarded an Best Portfolio with my Associate of Science in Web Design and Interactive Media at The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. Surrounding myself with other creative and motivated people was the biggest factor in my decision to study at a private institute for formal training. I am a currently a Senior Front-End Web Developer and Graphic Designer located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
