my sketchbook

it’s hard to imagine a time when I didn’t have a pen in my hand. If not writing, drawing and other art forms have been my go-to creative expression and escape. Over the past decade, that interest has translated into a love for design. From logos to t-shirts to posters, I’ve had a variety of experiences translated visual material to desired mediums, and with the opportunities Ooligan provides, I’m excited to grow my abilities within publishing.
