I do all of my design - including this website! I've been doodling all my life, but began honing my visual art in high school. At Elk Grove High School, I took three years of graphic design classes through their TDA (Technology and Digital Arts Academy) program. I'm fluent and skilled in programs like Illustrator, Photoshop, Paint.NET, Gimp, and others.
I look at graphic design as one of the world's most innovative and ever-changing fields. What looked great last year might be horrid this year, and vice versa. That is why there must always be young artists such as myself willing to try new, old, and revolutionary ideas.
