No, I’m not from New York, but I’m flattered you ask. I grew up in New Mexico, home of green chile and High School Musical. As long as I can remember, I’ve always loved to create. I am an aspiring art director in the advertising industry. I decided to enter the advertising industry because I saw the extensive impact that media and communications have to impact the world for good. I decided to become a creative because bringing the visions in my head to life in a way that resonates with people makes me feel alive. My goal is to create messages that connect with people and resonate with true emotions. My current side hobbies and areas of interest include typography, production design, furniture restoration, film photography, reading, and playing the harmonica.
