“Boys who spent their weekends making banana nut muffins did not, as a rule, excel in the art of hand-to-hand combat.”
-David Sedaris
I was a weird kid. While sports never captured my interest, a 96-pack of Crayola crayons (with the built-in sharpener) would make my heart race. From an early age, I had a strong creative streak and a distinct sense of style, whether it was my wardrobe, bedroom decor, or favorite color palette. Luckily, my parents encouraged my vision.
I was probably ten when I discovered Bewitched. Sitting on our shag carpeting, leaning against my father’s orange recliner, I watched Darrin Stephens work his magic in advertising. That was my 'aha' moment—I realized I could make a living doing what I loved.
Over the years, I've successfully evolved from graphic design to advertising, and now, branding and marketing design. The technology skills I've acquired have opened up new ways for me to help clients achieve their marketing goals, and I continue to be driven by the same passion that started it all.
