My journey into the Visual Arts began at a young age, ignited by a deep-rooted passion for illustration fueled by an interest in animated content. Early on, I found myself delving into sketching original characters and creating stories on the back of my old school notebooks. Countless hours spent honing my illustration skills over 15 years culminated in a vast skill set that paved my way into commissioning my work to digital realm – an evolution from a childhood hobby to a professional hobby, to put it simply.
My passion for illustration expanded me into the graphic design world during my sophomore year of high school. Delving into topics like color theory, spatial arrangement, and typographic nuances created a strong framework that laid the foundation for my academic pursuits.
After transferring to the University of Central Florida to complete my BA in Digital Media, my academic journey expanded. . . not just graphic design, but also the complex landscape of web design. Although initially unpredictable, diving into web development turned out to be a transformative experience characterized by initial excitement and subsequent excitement as I delved into the mechanics of website functionality.
I covered concepts from HTML and CSS to Javascript and Python – a steep learning curve that required persistence and flexibility. But with each challenge and triumph of repeated experimentation, my fear grew into a deep appreciation and passion for the medium. After graduation, I had extensive skills and knowledge in creating compelling digital experiences tailored to the diverse needs of both businesses and individuals, cementing my place in the dynamic world of digital media.
