While growing up in Brooklyn, New York, I developed a love for using my imagination for creating anything. I initially started off as a comic book artist and writer because I felt that it was the best way to use my imagination.

As I got older, I felt that creating comics were not enough for me. I felt that if I really wanted to bring them to life, then I should bring them to life through motion; which led to my primary career focus to be computer animation. Time passed, and I noticed the trends for animation changing gradually. People were trying to create more 3D animation than 2D, so I decided to continue my initial focus as a 2D animator, but set a higher goal for becoming a 3D animator.

By the time I came to Westwood College I was finally able to get my hands on both 2D and 3D animation. However, I was missing a means to promote myself and improve my foundation of colors and design. Luckily, Westwood placed me in Graphic Design classes. From there I have been able to create numerous works for design and broaden my view how to use colors, how to brand, and how express myself through design.
