About

A quick history lesson about me.

I'm a proud California native. Born and raised in the Central Valley. I grew up in a small town but I now live in Sacramento. I went to California State University, Fresno and earned a Bachelor's Degree in Liberal Arts. I really love to travel and have been to Canada, Mexico, and Roatan. I hope to be visiting Europe one of these days. I enjoy exploring new places and meeting new people because I'm an extremely social person.

I've been designing things on my computer for a loooooong time. If I tell you how long you'll think I'm old so just trust me on this one. I stay current with technology so I'm that guy that everyone calls when problems arise with anything that plugs in. I design with a wide variety of tools: pen and paper (no joke), my MacBook and iPad, Adobe Creative Suite, Apple iWork, Microsoft Office, Filemaker Pro, Final Cut Pro, and many other apps and technologies.

I have a background in teaching and training. I am passionate about learning and developing others. I have previously worked as a teacher at many grade levels and have also developed many training programs for current and new staff at various companies.

In my spare time, I take photos, film weddings, play the piano, and transform into a pop star while driving. My favorite food is spaghetti, I own way too many video games, I'm a car fanatic, and my hairstyle changes more than the seasons. But most importantly, I am a huge fan of Apple, Tesla, Nintendo, Sony, Marvel, Star Wars, Harry Potter, and all things Disney. I can talk about any of those things for hours. If you buy me a ticket to Disneyland, I will be your tour guide. I'm also always willing to play a game of Halo, Overwatch, Super Smash Bros, or Mario Kart. Just be prepared to lose in Mario Kart because I don't lose.

I'm always looking to be a part of fun and creative projects, so hopefully one day we'll be able to collaborate. Let's get together and grab a coffee... or hot chocolate because I'm not a huge coffee drinker.
