Resumé

Most designers pride themselves in putting out the coolest, or most aesthetically pleasing, designs around. While I cannot say that my renderings and output are the best around, I feel that I have so much more to offer than simply a hand with a pen in it. I feel strong in leadership ability, crisp and clean communication of ideas through verbal and non verbal contact, and professionalism.

In just the last several months, I have noticed an improvement in my skill set due to newfound motivation, inspiration, and help from friends. I hope that those who see this work realize that I am not just a hand behind the artwork, but rather a voice waiting to be heard. =)
