PRINTS (Apparel, 2014-Present)
Throughout the years, I’ve found a lot of satisfaction in making prints of my digital work. Something about taking something simple and almost disposable and turning it into something sentimental makes me feel like I’m filling my life and my family’s lives with art.

In my first few semesters in college (University of Arkansas), a friend had begun a student-lead initiative to improve the University’s carbon footprint, with the goal of raising student and faculty awareness on environmental concerns, starting at home with the act of recycling. My friend needed a logo and social media icon, and I was more than happy to help out.
The Recyclebacks required a design that could easily be implemented into a student’s typical college comfort style. Using Adobe CS6 (all the way back when it was still a pay-once-to-own product) to create a vector-based design that could be scaled from stickers all the way up to banners for the University. This project is always a good one to remind me that art can service work that saves the world.
Sr. Capstone Project - VR
(December 2020)Among the most enjoyable studies I had at UTD was my Capstone Project. I decided to create a playable virtual reality environment, where there would be a small amount of interaction for the player. Unfortunately, the bulk of my final semester coincided with the beginnings of the Covid-19 Pandemic. The semester was turned upside down, and I lost the ability to spend my evenings on campus getting help and peer review from fellow students.
In spite of the limitations, loneliness, and change of scope, I was able to create a playable virtual reality environment white-box amidst the beginnings of a terrifying pandemic. The gif (left) shows the happy dance I did when I finally got the whole thing working.
It was a well-earned victory, and very insightful into the workings of VR projects in Unity.
But wait there’s more!
Thank you for taking the time to explore my website!
From many years of curiosity come many years of passion. I spent a lot of my life admiring artists of all kinds, and in the recent years I feel indescribably happy with all of the decisions and opportunities that led me to where I am. I daydream about getting to be a part of a collaborative project, and I hope yours is the team that has an open seat at the table for me. If you have any desire to talk to me about future projects, the industry, or just want to say hi; feel free to us the ‘Contact Me’ page to send a message my way.
