The beginning of my skills were with traditional art mediums, including lead pencil, charcoal, and various paints. Then, I learned Adobe starting with Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign in 2018. Meanwhile, I also learned how to 3-D print with Cura Lulzbot, silhouette cut vinyl and cardstock, and more at the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) before taking a leave of absence so that I could save more money while working at Office Depot. Even at the job, I learned printmaking methods while also occasionally typesetting with Microsoft and Affinity. In 2020, I got into the Procreate fad to join some social media drawing trends and create more accurate, colorful illustrations.
Now at Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU), I am taking graphic design and media arts with a concentration in 3-D modeling and animation. I have learned a ton in the online program and on my own through some roadblocks. In the description of each piece you see in my portfolio, I mention my process and credit others. My work is based on my taste in music and the finer things in life.
