Just a human who loves design ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
For the last 2 years, I've been working as a senior designer for a marketing agency in Greenville, NC. And have been freelancing for the last 6 years.
My favorite design tool is Illustrator, though I'm proficient using Figma, Photoshop, InDesign, ProCreate, and Lightroom.
Some of the things I enjoy
I've always been a superhero fan. Batman to be specific. I find comic books to be a great source of creative inspiration, and I love digging through my dads old collection any chance I get.
Music
Music is great for helping me stay sane most days. It has even helped me out of some serious creative ruts in the past. Biggie > 2Pac. The Beatles > The BeeGees.
Food
This feels cliché to say, but I love pizza. Preferably a thick slice of pepperoni - the greasier the better. Chocolate milk is also a favorite. But never at the same time as the pizza.
