I’m originally from San Jose, California where I split my 4 years of high school between Live Oak Academy & Presentation High School. At both schools, I took graphic design courses, & was involved in creating the yearbook. At Live Oak, I was a graphic design teacher’s assistant, where I provided critiques of student work & created class content for various Adobe tools. I took every art class available to me in those four years; Design, Drawing, Graphic Publications, Graphic Design, Photography, & Yearbook, & I absolutely loved it!

I chose the College of Charleston because of how it integrates this extraordinary city into every aspect of the educational experience. I love all things unique, and Charleston truly stands out with its intimate feel that is rich with history, world class hospitality, & of course, art. I’m pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications with a minor in Marketing, & immersing myself in any creative advertising experience I can get my hands on! Between starting a freelance branding business, managing brand marketing for Diggs Designs, and receiving a nomination to represent CofC in the National Millenial/GenZ Community, I am incredibly grateful for the opportunities I’ve had here. I’m so excited to create brand images made with purpose; brands aligned with my clients’ most authentic selves to show who they are through a design lens.
