Occasionally eccentric and always an odd ball, I have always been a creative, out of the box thinker. Growing up I loved comic books. That love for the outrageous stories, loud color palettes, and stylized art grew into a love for painting, illustration, and design. I have been a freelance graphic Artist for 7 years after attending Southwest Community College for graphic design. I then got the opportunity to work with a few local Memphis Music Artists. I was mainly creating storyboards, concept design, and managing props for music videos. I was Inspired by my time on set to pick up a camera of my own and have since worked as a video editor full time at Creation Studios.
