In My Own Words

Desire and ambition to live life to the fullest and making that journey as fun and successful as I possible can. To know about me you have know my background. Why I am the way that I am.

First.... I fear a boring life. An office cubicle with no windows. Just a computer screen with sore fingers and a back ache. Counting down the minutes until I can get my 30 minute lunch and then out the door by 5. Only to sit in traffic for the next hour and a half.

The way I see it, you only got one life to live. Why not make it worth while. Take risks and post weird summaries about yourself on business websites. Be real. Live life like you only have one day left; don't take it for granted (so cliché, I know.) Its so important to find something you actual love to do. Like I have.

What is it I do? Well first let me tell you how it started..

Way back when I was awkward and confused I attended a seminar about college and careers and finding your path. The only three things I remember from that seminar was one, those who love their job will never work a day in their life. Two, you can do, and become anyone you want to be, as long as you have the heart and motivation. And three, most heart attacks happen on a Monday. And that stuck with me. The heart attack part. From that day on I promised myself I wouldn't settle. I would find a career that I would love doing day in and day out.

And that, folks, is why I am a Graphic Designer. I thrive and live through my art and design and have been doing this gig for 10+ years.
