about me

Hey there!

As a creator, I wear many hats: designer-artist-thinker-leader, and most importantly, beanie.

I'm currently pursuing a BFA in New Media Design at Rochester Institute of Technology, as well as minoring in Russian and Comics Studies.

RESUME

Designer, I hardly know 'er!

  • I'm an traditional artist at heart. My humble beginnings can be attributed to abstract scribbles on my parents' walls at age 3. Sorry Mom and Dad!
  • I'm a proud nerd. I'm particularly fascinated with art, history, mythology, superstition, and fantasy. When I'm not reading, rambling, or doodling, I play D&D with a group of high school friends!
  • I'm a leader and learner. Since April 2021, I've been the Art Director for Reporter magazine, which is RIT's only student-run magazine. I'm also a mentor for New Media Club and the College of Art and Design Honors program, helping underclassmen acclimate to college life and hosting creative events for the RIT community.
