About Me
I am a Graphic Designer and Illustrator based in Baltimore, currently pursuing an MA in Graphic Design at the Maryland Institute College of Art. My experience spans brand design, marketing design, web and print collateral, and illustrations across Product, Marketing, and creative studio environments.
Design, for me, is about raw expression and evocative storytelling. I like to create visuals that feel slightly but purposefully unfiltered, guiding the viewer through a specific emotion or idea. In my illustration work, I focus on low-brow and old-school tattoo art, often featuring gritty, red-themed compositions with a touch of surrealism.
