About Me

I'm a graphic designer in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I graduated in 2004 from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design and a History of Art Minor. I work at Cybernet Systems Corporation, a small business that specializes in research and development. I am the graphic designer for the company, so I get to do just about everything imaginable.

Design Statement

Be the change. Be a part of the solution, not the problem. I want to effect global change through design. At the end of each day, I want to say “the work I did today will make a difference in someone's life.” Everyday. The world is in desperate need for change and I want to be a part of it; a part of the solution. My desire in life is to help others, and this desire fuels my motivation for design.

What Else

I fill up my freetime with freelance design projects, running, trombone, ultimate frisbee, reading, volunteering for my church, wood carving, sketching, watching Michigan football and college basketball, and spending time with friends and family. I also love to travel, hike, and explore new places.

I'm a dreamer.
