A Bit About Me
Hello! I am a Graphic Designer, Crafter, Baker, and Photographer based in Western New York. I obtained my B.A. degree from SUNY Brockport in Brockport, New York, majoring in Photography and minoring in Graphic Design and Art History. Following my graduation in 2014, I worked as an in-house photographer at a local gift company in Western New York. During my tenure of over three years, I effectively utilized my crafting, baking, and design expertise to create photography for various platforms, including social media, websites, Amazon, print catalogs, editorials, large format printing, and brochures.
Subsequently, I transitioned to a full-time role as a graphic designer at a local print and graphics shop. This opportunity has allowed me to expand my knowledge in areas such as laser printing, screen printing, calendar design, logo design, book binding, and more.
Outside of work, I enjoy engaging in various activities such as traveling, creating handmade gifts, sewing costumes, swing dancing, and baking. These hobbies further fuel my creativity and passion.
If you have any specific questions or if there's anything else I can assist you with, please feel free to let me know!
