Hey there.
In December 2024, I graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Communication Design from Kutztown University of Pennsylvania. I have a strong passion for illustration and advertising design.
I have been a volunteer designer at Voters of Tomorrow, a nationwide organization focused in inspiring young people to get registered to vote and to advocate for change. I have been trusted with projects that include branding, social media posts, banners and profiles, merchandise and posters. I have also spent the last four years working as a freelance portrait artist working with clients to create custom pieces of artwork using photo references, in mediums such as graphite, oil paint, digital and ink. Both roles have given me the opportunity to learn more about adaptability, reliability, and time management.
For the past year I have coached gymnastics at East Penn Children’s Fitness Academy. As a part of this role, I have managed up to 25 kids for fifty-five-minute increments and followed a strict class schedule to make sure the academy is running on time. This role has given me the opportunity to not only develop my soft skills for my future profession, but also allowed me to share my love of gymnastics and tumbling with a new generation.
While attending Kutztown University, I have been fortunate enough to be a part of two juried exhibitions, the Freshman Foundation Show, as well as Senior Exhibition. I have dedicated my time at Kutztown to learning more about advertising design, creating three campaigns using both traditional and non-traditional media. One of these campaigns garnering recognition at the 2024 Addy Awards, winning silver for cross-platform consumer campaigns. I am currently interested in finding a position in advertising and art direction in the northeast region.
