Full Biography

I am currently in my junior year at California Polytechnic University, San Luis Obispo, majoring in Sociology with a concentration in Law and Society. I am a strong believer in staying creatively active and am always looking for a new project.

I have worked with Adobe’s Creative Suite since before high school, specializing in Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign to create web and print publications. I also have experience designing with HTML, CSS, and WordPress. Between projects I write about professionalism, education, and living a positive lifestyle. I would love to inspire younger professional women.

My dream career would unite my love of media and design with my interest in law and social justice. If you’d like to work together, feel free to get in touch!
