I'm a graphic designer recently graduated from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. I have a love of space and science which shows through in some of my design projects. I also have a love of photography and have always pursued it as a hobby. I enjoy making work that engages with the current state of technology and how it affects our lives.

About my work

I am interested in using my creative skills to create work that either comments on, or further contributes to, the progression of modern technology. My childhood was dominated by two particular areas of interest. I grew up just in time to witness the rise of mobile connected devices like smartphones. The evolution of these devices and their consequential services have always fascinated me. I want to be a part of the digital revolution that’s shaping so many aspects of our modern lives.

The second subject that captured my imagination as a kid is space travel, and as a result a few of my academic design projects have been focused on space in some form or another. I am an advocate for humanity expanding beyond low earth orbit to the Moon and Mars. I believe in the coming decades it will become commonplace for people to live & work in orbit and on the Moon and if I can contribute to that cause with my design talents, well, that’s the dream.
