I earned my BFA in Graphic Design at California College of the Arts and studied photography at CCSF. It was at CCA that I found myself exploring the intersection between the two disciplines. I fell in love with photography; finding it a great companion to my passion in graphic design.

As a multidisciplinary visual artist, I'm always looking for playful ways to merge, disassemble, intersect, and transform graphic design with photography and other visual arts. It is through these synergies that I hope to bring a fresh interpretation to the table. I am very excited about what future projects await as I continue to explore the fluid world of design.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Recently I discovered my wanderlust nature when I decided to study photography; my free spiritedness was reinforced during my first photography project in Tijuana, Mexico. I hope traveling extensively will help me live in the present and give me strength to focus on the future. I would like to heal some emotional wounds by surviving backpacking trails worldwide and surrounding myself with positive people. Also I am interested in experiencing different cultures through design, art, and street photography.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I helped my aunt take care of my mom when she was diagnosed with cancerous brain tumors. I am happy to have been there for her as she regained her memory and motor skills.

教，学，和分享

I can teach people how to use their cameras settings (manual) be it digital or film cameras. Discuss studio lighting and lens. We can discuss/create sketches on logo/identity design and how they can use it for their business. I play the flute and guitar (can teach the basics)... If you have the Adobe Suite I can teach Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign. I can take your portrait with ambient lighting.
