A bit about me...
I am a 2004 graduate of the Herron School of Art. My BFA is in General Fine Arts. What's that mean? Well it basically meant I got to chart my own course. I was very interested in Graphic Design, but yet I still wanted to become an accomplished Illustrator. So I decided to concentrate in both fields. I want to be a well rounded versatile artist, one who can create solutions using both traditional and digital media together. I am a bit of gear head, and a big sports fan. My goal is to one day be able to fuse my hobbies and career together.
