About Me

As a graduate of Kings College, I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Mass Communications & Media Technologies, with a Graphic Design emphasis. I joined the Web Development team at Marywood in March of 2010.

What I do...

I am a graphic designer, and help web content editors at Marywood with the visual aspects of their department web pages.

My Experience...

For the past ten years, I’ve worked hands-on in the design industry: within educational and agency environments and as a small business owner.

About Me...

I love my dog Roxy and cat Quincy. My favorite band is Jack's Mannequin and Modern Family is my favorite tv show. I enjoy photography, skiing, and soccer.
