More About Me!
The who, what, where, and why of it all!
I was born and raised in the Appalachian Mountains of West Virginia—a place that shaped who I am. Without phones or TV, I spent my childhood outdoors, sketching plants and animals and making hand-drawn nature guides. That’s where my love for design began. In high school, I realized design was more than art—it could make life easier and more meaningful. Seeing how poor design confused my community inspired me to create with purpose. Choosing design as my major was natural; I wanted to blend creativity with care. Today, I’m grateful to live that dream—designing with accessibility and community at the forefront.
