About Me

A Young Artist

Art has always been a part of my life; I can’t think of a time where I wasn’t producing art. Like most artists, it started with drawing but for me, it was also creating and experimenting with anything I could get my hands on. Because of this, I feel it opened my eyes to the world of creativity and realize the potential that I could express an idea or thought in a way words cannot. Everything just began snowballing from there as I then started painting, sculpting, and eventually bringing my ideas and designs to the digital world. Having completed graphic design at Fanshawe College only validated that further. To think that this is only the beginning of my graphic design career, I am beyond excited and thrilled to be producing art every day and doing what I love not only as a hobby but as a career.

My Message

My passion for design and illustration is strong and I love that feeling you get when you’re able to express an idea or thought in a way that words cannot.
