About

I am highly creative and prefer to be on the ideation and initial concept generation side of things rather than working on the computer.I am concerned with green design and creating products that are universal for all consumers including the "able and disabled." I hope to find myself with a company that will give me the opportunity to really let my creativity flow and will also allow room for my personal growth as well as growth with the company.
