Bio

Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest, I have been an artist since 6 years of age. After honing my skills in multiple art forms, I became interested in managing art projects, so I transferred college majors to business, with a concentration in project management. My goals are to be active in public art projects. My experience is mainly in web project management and web design, but I have other experience in creative fields such as music production and video/animation that will play a key role in my future.

I currently operate an online art e-zine dedicated to Pacific Northwest artists, AllegedGenius.com. Eventually it will be converted into an e-zine supported by a production studio creating art content for online distribution and public affairs.

I also have my regular jobs, ranging in industries from education to cable/telecom, and most recently pet healthcare at Banfield, The Pet Hospital, as a member of the Wellness Plan Relations team. Most positions are business/office related, a grounding balance with my creative pursuits.

I also write for Associated Content when I can, focusing on business practices related to innovations in e-commerce.
