I am a multidisciplinary graphic designer with a deep-rooted passion for visual storytelling and community-focused work. Born and raised in the close-knit towns of Ashland and Catlettsburg, Kentucky, my educational path has been one of resilience and growth. After earning my Adult High School diploma in North Carolina, I completed an Associate of Arts degree at Ashland Community and Technical College in 2022. I graduated from the University of Kentucky’s Digital Media and Design program in May 2025. 

Throughout my academic journey, I’ve remained committed to service and inclusion. I created outreach materials for Student Support Services and AmeriCorps, then later contributed to the LGBTQ* Resource Center at the University of Kentucky, designing engaging content across print and digital platforms. I also held leadership roles within the Non-Traditional Student Organization at the University of Kentucky including a short time as president. I am also a proud member of Phi Theta Kappa at the ACTC Chapter.

Creative expression has been a part of my life since childhood, particularly in illustration, animation, and character design. Whether working under pressure or exploring new ideas, I find purpose and joy in creating. I’m currently seeking internships or professional opportunities in graphic design where I can apply my skills, continue learning, and contribute to impactful, innovative projects.
