let's dive a little deeperabout me

Ever since I built my first computer with my dad when I was 12, I’ve been fascinated by computers. This passion very quickly led me to discover programming. I enrolled at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo with the goal of getting a BS in Computer Science, but quickly realized that curriculum completely ignored my other passion: graphic design. Eventually I transitioned to the Art Institute of California: Hollywood where I graduated with my BS in Graphics and Web Design. By meshing my background in Computer Science and my zeal for design, I can use these two harmonious skills to create aesthetically pleasing, functional and dynamic web projects. Aside from coding and design, I spend my spare time traveling, taking timelapses and dog photos with my sony α7IV, nerding out on projects with the adorable yet powerful Raspberry Pi, and continuing to search for the best grilled cheese in LA.
