resume

    I am an Artist and Designer working with digital media. I focus most of my work on posters and other graphics, as I seek to communicate messages and information in the most accessible way. As an Artist and Designer, I hold myself to a few principles that dictate who and what I work for and what work I do.
    My work is about creating something that’s meaningful, visually pleasing, and informative. I’ve committed myself to a life of learning, most prominently about art history and literature, which I often allude to within my work with poses and references to the past.
        I graduated summa cum laude with honors from Montclair State University’s Visual Communication Design Program in 2023. During my time there I was awarded the Ina Golub Endowed Scholarship in 2019 and 2022 — and in 2023 I was a recipient of three New Jersey Press Foundation awards in the categories of Layout Design, Video, and Opinion Writing.
