I started my life as an infant on the west coast in Santa Monica, California in the mid 80's and awakened to a bright and sunny world. My time there was shortly lived, and at the mere age of one my mother moved us to Texas. Fortunately for me, Texas was the place where I found my friends, fiance and most importantly design (although my fiance would argue that order otherwise). My love for design started in a high school digital graphics course, and came only after years of drawing and painting. At UT I had the opportunity to finesse my thinking and design skills and further my education through several internships.
Currently, I am a User Experience Designer at Lombardi Software where I mix my love for visual design with my newfound passion for UX.
