    I have done graphic design off and on for almost 10 years. I started before I knew what it was as a teen, discovered it as a career in high school, and pursued a degree at Iowa State University. After attending one year at the university I opted to finish up at a local community college. At that point I moved to a marketing / management degree. Over the past 3 years I have been doing a lot more graphic design for friends and my job. Now I am seeking new people with new ideas and different perspectives. I love design and creating art, I enjoy collaborating and creating art of all forms. What I enjoy most with collaborative projects is the enjoyment you get seeing your ideas come to fruition.
