Growing up as both an athlete and musician in the Napa Valley sparked my passion for craftsmanship, storytelling, and creating meaningful experiences through design. I earned my BFA in Graphic Design + Digital Media with an emphasis in Action Sports and a minor in UX/UI Design from Laguna College of Art + Design (LCAD), where I discovered my passion for apparel graphics, brand storytelling, and sustainable design.
I currently work as an Assistant Designer at Style Melody Inc. dba Love Tree, where I continue to grow my experience in apparel design and product development.
