I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Graphic Design (Animation Track) from Ashford University (Clinton, IA). I also have an Associate's Degree in Applied Science from Clinton Community College. I graduated Prince of Peace High School in 2009. I have an interest in working on animation, graphics, and environments for movies, television, and video gaming designs, but also enjoy building and maintaining websites and creating designs for print. 

​

I am well skilled in the Adobe programs including Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, Dreamweaver, InDesign, Acrobat Pro as well as Autodesk Maya and Mudbox.

 I am also experienced in large-format printing, using RIP software, cutting, mounting, and presenting pieces. 

​

Hobbies include listening to music (heavy metal and genres of rock are my favorite, but I like all kinds), drawing, creating masterpieces in Photoshop, watching wrestling, sports (Cubs, Bulls, Hornets, Bears, Blackhawks, and Iowa Hawkeyes are my favorite teams).
I play bass guitar, rhythm guitar, and can sing and enjoy writing music and doing my own rendition of songs in my spare time
