Born in Socorro, New Mexico, I spent my childhood doodling as any other child would, on the walls. Eventually my parents would convince me that paper would be a far more deserving medium of my artistry.

This hobby was nurtured by a few art classes as a child, but no serious interest developed until middle school. I was formally introduced to Photoshop through a family friend, and that sparked the beginning of what you see here.

I gradually realized that to show others digital art, a digital medium would be required. Eventually I taught myself rudimentary HTML using basic text editors as my platform which evolved to FrontPage and Dreamweaver. These skills would allow me my first job at NETiS Technology.

Eventually I would move on to Trend Micro where I cultivated my abilities in graphic and web design.

Moving forward a few more years and I entered a new chapter of my career by moving to McAfee. It is here that I learn consumer design and expand my creativity and CSS skillset.

Finally, my most recent venture at SmugMug allowed me to take ownership of projects in their entirety, from wireframing and ideation through visual creation and development.

As for my private life, I enjoy numerous hobbies - automotive tuning, audiophilic pursuit, home theater, gadgets, DJing, street and high fashion, sneakerology, gourmand, and pillow testing.
