About Me
I started college chasing a computer science degree, convinced it was the "safe" path, even though it meant burying the creative side of myself I'd been too afraid to acknowledge. While I was still at community college, I made the decision to switch my major and took a chance by applying to the Graphic Design BFA program. I'm so happy I did. The program didn't just teach me design, it rewired how I think about creating meaningful work. Through the discipline, the long nights, the critiques, and the guidance from incredible instructors, I learned to trust my ideas and stay true to myself. There were definitely ups and downs along the way, but each challenge pushed me to grow. More than anything, this journey has given me confidence, not just in my work, but in myself and the creative path I chose to take.
