Graphic Designer. I have been practicing graphic design and illustration for almost two decades. I design, plan, lead, and review the production of a broad spectrum of digital, print, and large scale media. I am also a mentor to aspiring, junior, and mid-level graphic designers navigating the broad landscape of our trade. Before moving to Minnesota, I worked for the US government as a graphic designer. It was challenging work that required me to be multidisciplinary and quick on my feet. I created visuals to explain complex stories through problem solving, communication, and collaboration. The mission and the work was very rewarding and shaped me to be the designer I am today.
Illustrator. My origins in the field of arts started with illustration. I enjoy capturing life, concepts, and patterns in different interpretive ways. My freelance work often utilizes illustrations, following a more creative and freestyle format.
Mentor. My top five StrengthsFinder strengths are Empathy, Realtor, Futuristic, Developer, and Strategic. All closely related to the desire and enjoyment of recognizing, inspiring, and empowering others to achieve greatness in themselves and discover new potential.
