Design is not only how we communicate our ideas, thoughts, and feelings, but, the emotion we invoke in others. For Me this started as a child, inspired by the very world around me; The characters that jumped off the pages of my favorite comic books, movies, games, the stories that were told, the emotions and connectivity to the characters, the usage of typography  and colorful imagery. collectively sparked my imagination invoking the very emotion we seek through design. Activities that keep me grounded, fishing, mountain biking, and building lego sets, developed and inspired creative knowhow and crucial critical thinking skills essential to complete and well rounded design.
