I grew up on a farm, where agriculture taught me discipline, problem-solving, and how systems work together over time. That background still shapes how I approach building things today. I started teaching myself to code at a young age, driven by curiosity and a desire to understand how technology works.
Today, I am a professional graphic designer and a solo web developer, handling everything from visual design to production-ready code. I work with multiple businesses through the company I work for, and create marketing materials that help them see more foot traffic and grow their brand presence.
Outside of my 9-5 I work on freelance projects for local businesses and personal projects that interest me.
I attended Lake Land College in Mattoon, Illinois, where I studied web design and earned an associates degree in IT-WebDesign. I currently study at Arizona State University, where I am pursuing a Bachelors degree in Graphic Information Technology | Full-Stack Web Development.
I'm a builder at heart — I enjoy turning ideas into real, usable products and care deeply about user experience, performance, and design.
