About
I'm a freelance graphic designer and mix-media artist based in South Jersey/Greater Philadelphia area. I have been freelancing for several years now. I graduated from the Mason Gross School of the Arts- Rutgers University with a concentration in Graphic Design. Freelancing has allowed me to assist many small start up companies with creating logo designs, refining brochures, creating advertisements; which allows these businesses with a more refine brand. Away from designing, I work on various mix media art and commission portrait work.
If you are interested in working with a creative and innovative individual and/or have any ideas, projects or opportunities you'd like to discuss, feel free to contact me for any graphic design or commission art work. (All Images Copyright 2011-2020) -
