Summary

I supposed the best place to start is at the beginning. I am a born and raised Canadian, currently living in Toronto, Ontario. I have been working as a designer since I got my first internship in Highschool and never stopped since. I have attempted to work in both Print and Packaging, however it seems like Digital Design always find a way to pull me back.
