I've been passionate about art since I was very young. I began studying graphic design in 2005 and then switched my major to Web design in 2008. I grew up in Michigan and started my Web studies there at the Art Institute of Michigan. A year later, I transferred to the Illinois Institute of Art - Chicago. My major was Web Design and Interactive Media, which consisted of various types of coding, with a few classes of Flash animation. I graduated in 2010 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with a major in Web Design and Interactive Media (with perfect attendance!). I remained in Chicago until 2017, when I moved to Knoxville, Tennessee.
I currently work at the Alzheimer's Association as an Email/Creative Specialist. I design, code and deploy emails for the Direct Marketing department. I also create donation forms using Luminate Online. I find it very rewarding working for a non-profit and feel so lucky to have the job I do.
When I'm not busy hanging out with my two cats, I enjoy doing freelance work.
