About me
I am currently enrolled in studio arts and graphic design at Chatham University in Pittsburgh, PA, where my passion lies in art and design. In my field, I engage in both independent work and collaborative projects with others.
My focus is on the hands-on aspects of studio arts, specifically in painting, printmaking, and collage creation. I am drawn to a mixed-media approach and experimenting with various materials within a single composition; this is the direction I aim to explore further in my practice.
Moreover, I find media arts and graphic design captivating as they offer a unique creative outlet. I have experience in logo and brand design, as well as print design for posters, flyers, brochures, and book covers. Additionally, I have experience in crafting content for social media platforms.
