As a life long artist, I started off my career as a butcher because I loved working with my hands and was very interested in the food and agriculture industry. After many years of learning in that field, I decided to pursue graphic design as a way to express myself in a more artistic way at work. After cutting my teeth in printing and design industry, I am now building my career in the exhibits design world at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum where I get to mix all of my passions for art, science, and multimedia design.
