Summary

I’m a senior at the University of Arkansas pursuing a BA in Studio Art with minors in Marketing and Art History. I’ve developed skills in digital art, screen printing, animation, film, drawing, and sculpture, applying them to various projects and exhibitions. My marketing background in brand identity, social media, and content strategy enhances my ability to promote art initiatives. With insights into art movements from my art history studies, I’m eager to combine creativity with marketing in a dynamic role. I also served as the Graphics Chair for Phi Mu Alpha Beta, furthering my design experience.
