I graduated from the University of Hartford with a degree in Visual Communication Design and a minor in Architecture. While studying there, I was also part of the Volleyball program and learned a lot about leadership and community through being an athlete. Apart from sports, I enjoy spending time outdoors and being active, particularly by going on hiking trips. Growing up in Upstate NY sparked my love for nature, which continues to this day. As a designer, my main focus is creating meaningful experiences for every individual. I believe that by understanding their thoughts, feelings, and emotional connection to a project, the design can be most successful.
