A visionary for creation.

   I'm delighted you've decided to explore my page further. Allow me to give you some insight on how I found my path. In middle school, I downloaded a copy of Photoshop CS4 (when Myspace was popular). I was always drawn to digital creativity. In 2012 when I received my diploma, I went to college for commercial graphic design at Trident Technical College, in Charleston, SC. In 2014 I settled and joined the work force in the health insurance industry, making use of my arts education with the occasional freelance projects. 

   In 2019 I started a video production business, where I had the amazing experience of filming weddings, commercials, and created other branded content for small businesses. As the pandemic in 2020 drastically affected my entrepreneurial ventures, I put my energy into my corporate occupation at the time. I then accepted a new role as a regional training specialist. I discovered I had a passion to develop and mentor others. For 3 years I coached others and developed training programs. 

  As of August 2023 I completed my life goal of moving from my hometown of Charleston, SC to Dallas, TX. Now that I have found a happy intersection of creative design with a passion for coaching, I have decided to pursue instructional design as my career path.
