Let's connect and dive into how my skill set can help your organization's success.

//.My relationship with design really started to take form in graphic design vocational school. Over the years, Photoshop, Illustrator, and After Effects have become the extensions of my creative mind. since then my interest evolved toward development, as I started crafting cutting edge websites, blending my graphic design skills with interactive and animated elements.
