HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT MYSELF

I am a Mississippi State Alumni living in Baton Rouge, Louisiana ( Dangerous Territory - I know! ). As I continue to work in a fast pace agency, multi-tasking has become my middle name. As the lead designer, I am always thinking a step ahead - I am ready to take on any challenge! Drawing is my passion and traveling is always on my mind. I am also a big fan of Star Trek. So as Mr. Spock would say, "Live long and prosper!"
