OCCUPATION: Comic Artist, Colorist, Illustrator, Web Developer, Photographer
SCHOOL: Associates of Digital Design
All my life, I have been blessed with the gift of art. I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t creating something. I find all forms of art very intriguing. Right after I graduated from college, with a degree in Digital Design, I decided to pursue my passion for commercial art. This lead me to develop websites for over six years and currently, a comic illustrator for companies such as Apsen Comics and DC Comics.
While I was on my path to being a professional artist, I modeled briefly for a few years and developed close friendships with many of the photographers, whom given me great advice and shared the same passion I did for the art. Naturally, I picked up photography and will enjoy the journey, onto which, I’ve embarked.
