as a gen-z raised in silicon valley, I spent much of my early life on the computer. I taught myself photoshop to make memes and basic web coding to  personalize my tumblr page. I had intense notions about how things should look, how they should come across, and I obsessed over how to make the vision in my head come to life. I realized that what I was doing was designing, and I was hooked.

I enrolled in a digital media academy junior year of high school. I freelanced constantly, often for clients who had no idea I was a student. I loved the feeling of bringing people’s ideas and passions to life.

my ultimate goal is to use the skills I’ve gained from my education to convey my own point of view, pushing myself to new heights of personal expression.
