Education

2012 — 2017
Bachelor of Arts - Digital Design at Seattle University
Seattle, WA

After jumping around finding myself and the major I wanted to focus on as an undergraduate, I landed on Digital Design where I learned basic design principles, color theory, composition, golden ratio, and all aspects of how designers communicate complex ideas into simplified visuals. Throughout my time here, I helped students on campus come up with poster designs and illustrations to help showcase upcoming events they are hosting and have implemented it into the photo and video work I was doing for fun and professionally.
