Growing up in the late 90s and early 2000s, my creative journey began with traditional art forms like drawing and painting, later evolving into digital art. Despite family concerns about pursuing creativity professionally, I found inspiration in nearby museums showcasing human ingenuity. After high school, I explored various academic paths, eventually focusing on graphic design and psychology at Shepherd University, before advancing to anthropology graduate studies. Over more than a decade, I have built impactful products, brands, and media, driven by a passion for creativity and strategic insight. I actively share my industry experience and strategies on LinkedIn, striving to help others elevate their creative processes and projects.
