More is more but fun is even better.
Deep respect for makers
With a background as a professional exhibiting artist, I have a deep knowledge of and respect for makers. The resourcefulness and observational skills I honed during my time as a studio artist are skills I will always use in my design practice. Process will always inform what I do. I will never stop making.
This kinetic sculptural installation shown below was shown several times in Victoria, B.C.. The work consists of three large islands and several smaller ‘stranded islands.’ Loosely the work talks of lived embodiment one feels of being at home and the problems dysphoria causes when it is absent.

Joy for the expressive storytellers
From photo-realistic, vector-based illustrations, to hand drawn cartoons that are digitized, to full murals I enjoy creating illustrations for clients that aim to connect their stories to the larger human experience.
Software
Adobe Illustrator, adobe Photoshop, Adobe After Effect (Or nothing but a pencil and paper or sharpie marker on a wall)
