A beach kid hailing from Wilmington, North Carolina, I joined the Smashing Boxes team as an Interactive Web Designer a week after graduating N.C. State University with a degree in Graphic Design. I constantly pursue improvement of my personal and professional craft.

Actually, that’s what I’m doing right now! I am revamping my site to be more legible, readable and a better platform for some wordsmithing and establish a voice in the community. I will be writing on design, theory and practice.

I was a Semifinalist in the 2010 Adobe Design Achievement Awards for Mobile Design, winner of the Entrepreneur Games Extreme Website Makeover Challenge and Poster Design in 2011 and 2010, respectively. I was active at N.C. State: four internships of varying fields, Graphic Design President & Interaction Designer for a student start-up, designer and photographer for The Technician, AIGA member and volunteer. To see more about what I’ve done, please take a look at my resume. Also, feel free to email me and I can send you a pdf portfolio or physical portfolio!

When not at work or doing work related activities, you can spot me freelancing, animating, disc golfing, surfing, reading, adventuring, taking photos or enjoying a pint of local brew with friends.
