    I'm an illustrator / graphic artist working freelance with both traditional and digital media.

    During my day job I primarily work at creating vector based artwork, as well as photo manipulation.

    Outside of work, I create both traditional media and digital art, sometimes combining the two.

    I am self motivated and believe that deadlines are crucial.

    Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
