In my own words

— Blake

I'm a graphic designer and illustrator with a passion for skateboarding, comics, games, brand development, art direction, and photography.

I've worked with creative entrepreneurs, small businesses and international brands to produce innovative design solutions for digital and print. I especially enjoy collaborating and thrive on working with people from a variety of backgrounds.

I'm committed to delivering great work and learning new skills and technologies to ensure the successful completion of a project.

I also enjoy studying artists and designers I admire, observing design trends, making personal projects, and taking courses to grow as a visual storyteller.
