I'm a passionate pop culture artist and graphic design graduate with over 20 years of experience in client-facing roles, ranging from tech sales and banking to culinary arts and design work. My journey has been anything but ordinary — after a bold move and a challenging year of personal growth, I committed 15 months to mastering design, graduating in the top percentile in Canada through VCAD. I bring creativity, resilience, and a deep understanding of storytelling to everything I do, whether it’s through hand-drawn digital illustrations, building brands, or engaging with fans at comic cons. With a love for design, pop culture, food, art and all things nerdy, I channel both professionalism and personality into every project I take on. My most relevant professional experience has been in developing my personal brand from the ground up, with a strong focus on cohesive visual identity and strategic marketing. Through thoughtful branding, logo design, typography, color systems, and tone of voice, I’ve built a recognizable and authentic presence as a artist. I’ve applied marketing principles to grow my audience, using tools like social media strategy, SEO and user-focused website design on Wix. My background in sales and service has given me a deep understanding of how to connect with target audiences and position myself effectively in a competitive market. This hands-on experience has sharpened my ability to build and promote brands that are both visually compelling and strategically sound.…I'm a passionate pop culture artist and graphic design graduate with over 20 years of experience in client-facing roles, ranging from tech sales and banking to culinary arts and design work.
