PORTFOLIO 2012

“Design can be art, Design can be aesthetics, Design is so simple, that’s why it’s so complicated.”

- Paul Rand

This portfolio contains a selection of my best work that I have developed both at college and at home, put

together to show my skills and also the different subjects that I have approached on graphic design, such as

posters, advertising, illustratration and photography. At this time I have completed a BFA degree in Fine Arts at my

University, Stephen F. Austin State University. I have always had a passion for the arts and now it is my time to

continue my journey without the guidance of schooling. It’s time for me to go into the real world and utilize my

sharpened talents. Through my four years of University I have gone through the fine arts program wtih an emphasis

on branding, advertising and other conceptual forms of visual communications. Through the rest of my college

carreer I was fortunate enough to also work in 3D installation, ceramics, drawing, painting and digital media.

After my University training I was lucky enough to have had the opportunites to intern in Switzerland for three

weeks and also work in Iceland for the last two summers both giving me a chance to grow with my design skills

and learn a new language.

I see myself in ten years time taking the role of an Artistic Director for a creative company. At this time, I realize I

have to work my way up to that position, however this is something I am ready to do. I’m young and have a zest for

life with an unstoppable drive that will continue to work for this goal no matter what the obstacles are.

With your help, I could be a beneficiary tool to your company which I have found intriguing and

stimulating. Please have a look through my portfolio and let me know what you think.

Kind regards,
