I’m a graphic design student and volunteer with a passion for illustration, branding, and creating visuals that connect with people. I enjoy collaborating with libraries, youth programs, and community groups to craft logos, posters, and displays. I’m proficient with Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop, along with PowerPoint, Keynote, and Canva, and I love bringing ideas to life through visual storytelling. Currently studying Art and Visual Technology with a focus on Graphic Design at George Mason University, I’ve served as a Graphic Design Intern at Charles E. Beatley Library and as a Graphic Design Volunteer working on event logos, slides, and social media assets. I’m excited to continue growing as a designer, contribute to meaningful projects, and help communities engage through thoughtful design.
