Designer by way of music and the exhibit & trade show industry. Having grown up immersed in both, graphic design has always been something I am forever drawn to. After a few years of drawing as a kid and admiring my mom's paintings and artwork, I first started learning how to design logos and flyers on the computer almost 20 years ago, around the same time I picked up the bass guitar. It was AppleWorks even before it was Photoshop, creating poster designs for my punk band's upcoming show. Then throughout the MySpace era, I learned how to code and started digging into how to build custom sites using HTML/CSS and javascript.
