I am a programming technician with a bachelor's degree in animation, digital art and multimedia, and a master's degree in education. However, my passion is graphic design, especially branding and UX/UI design.

I have extensive experience in a variety of roles, including customer service representative, assistant store manager, junior animator, 3D modeler, community manager, high school teacher, college professor, graphic designer, brand consultant, and marketing manager. I've also been a volleyball player on my high school team, a drummer for several rock and nu-metal bands, and a solo artist with a rap music album. I am an amateur writer, an aspiring novel writer, a gamer since the cradle and very passionate about e-sports.

As you can see, I am a person who likes challenges and learning new things. I am a storyteller who uses images and words to convey the right message to the right people.

I am confident that I can leverage my skills and experience to help your company achieve its goals. I look forward to learning more about your needs and how I can help you.
