I'm a junior undergrad at Bloomfield College studying Graphic Design. I'm also a Student-Athlete on an athletic scholarship who competes in Track & Field. I'm a skilled graphic designer who enjoys developing aesthetically appealing material for individuals and businesses. I've assisted clothing firms, including my own, in advertising and marketing their products by developing logos, clothes mockups, posters, and media content. In my spare time, I enjoy photography, creating garments, designing posters and media material, painting, cooking, and watching movies.
