Summary

I've always had a want to be artistic and help others whether its helping someone feel better about themselves, or taking notes from a director and creating exactly whats in their mind and make it live on stage. My professional life has taken me on many creative and fun avenues I never knew was possible, from helping my great aunt feel better about herself, to seeing an entire character design I helped create live on stage at one of the largest entertainment parks in the world, its been an amazing and humbling experience that has prepared me to tackle any project and job that is ahead of me.
