This is just lil ol' me.

Well if you’re reading this, then you clearly are trying to learn more about me, so the following is a futile attempt to describe myself in a few paragraphs. I was born and raised the beautiful, crowded, and sunny state of California. After graduating from high school I traveled for two years straight with a group that allowed me to impact kids, as well as see a plethora of the United States. I would have to say that Helvetica as my favorite movie, I am an Apple computer junkie, and I’m visually swooned by the smooth curves of a well-designed font. Besides pushing pixels, I enjoy photography, reading, board sports, and Frisbee golf.

A native Californian, I grew up in a Los Angeles suburb, and then moved to Auburn in Northern California. My only sibling Amber, a.k.a “the best sister in the world,” got married in 2008. If you don’t agree that my sister is the best ever, “I will fight you – that is no lie.” I am currently the graphic designer and assistant technical director at Blue Ridge Community Church in Forest, Va.

Growing up, I thought I would want to color cartoons for Disney. I would probably be in a studio today if they still made cartoons the old fashioned way. However, I must admit I still loves all things Disney and can rattle off more trivia than anyone would ever bother listening to.

I have made a pact with myself to never let my circumstances determine who I am.

I am a detail-oriented person who sometimes forgets to sleep. I love mixing live sound, from time to time dabble in recording, I love taking photos but have rather shabby equipment, I probably could have been a stunt driver, and I can remember numbers better than names. Electronic wordless music is the soundtrack to my life, and my favorite drink at Starbucks is a Quad, Iced, Venti, no whip, one pump hazelnut, chocolate syrup drizzled, soy milk, white chocolate mocha.
