About me

Hi, I’m Owen, but I really go by Digby! I’m 23 and recently moved back to Everett from Marysville. I’m excited to find work in this area that I’m genuinely passionate about. It's been amazing to settle back into the same area I grew up in. You might not know anyone else named Digby, but it was a nickname given to me as a kid and it’s stuck long enough that it's become permanent.

I love meeting new people and finding common ground—it’s one of my favorite things about working with others. I enjoy music production and digital art as ways to get creative, and I’m a huge fan of animals. Growing up in Washington was a blessing for me. I'll never stop being amazed and captivated by our creative culture and the nature we're surrounded by.
