    Graduated cum laude from Hofstra University with a B.A. in Graphic Design, and I've got a passion for all things design; advertising/fashion/music/food, you name it. Give me the hustle and bustle of a busy work place, productivity, positivity and team work, (occasionally a spoonful of peanut butter) and I'll bring an abundance of creative ideas to the table.
