Never would I have thought I could have a creative career!

Growing up, I was the napkin-doodle enthusiast at every restaurant my parents dragged me to. The joy of creating was my everything, even though my doodles weren't exactly masterpieces.

My friends joked about me becoming a starving artist, which led me to believe there’s little future for a creative career.

But, in Freshman year of high school it all changed for me! My cousin Kelsy introduced me to Adobe Illustrator and the pen tool. In those moments, my mind was absolutely blown away!

My life immediately changed for the better! I had no clue graphic design was a thing, but once I found out, I dove in headfirst. I graduated with a major in graphic design and a minor in photography, all because of that napkin-doodle-loving kid who stumbled upon the wonders of graphic design. It’s a dream come true! 🚀✨

I love coffee, creativity, & community!

During my free time, you’ll find me:

Hosting Creative Meet-ups
Selling shirts at pop-ups for my brand Exhilo
On Adobe PS, AI, or LR
Re-watching The Office or Breaking Bad
Drinking coffee or boba…or both 😂
Taking Photos of people & places
