I’m proud to say that in my time in college, I was invited to join the University’s honors business program and two national honors societies. I have also achieved Dean’s List status numerous times.
• I’ve been web designing since 2000 and graphic designing since 2001.

• Hablo Español y quería aprender otras idiomas.
• I wear glasses when I actually feel like seeing and paying attention to distant objects.

• I have been a vegetarian since the age of 14 (I am technically a pescatarian right now), but I am not an obnoxious, belligerent DON’T EAT THAT! DON’T WEAR THAT! GO VEGAN BECAUSE I HATE MEAT EATERS! type; I hate people like that.
