When I was a young kid, I was obsessed with MS paint on Windows 95. I painted a scene of Hello Kitty and her friends going to the movies. I didn’t realize it at the time, but I was already starting my career in graphic design. Later, I found myself graduating from the University of Texas of Austin with a BA in Journalism with no desire to tell stories with words but instead with visuals.I moved to California in 2014 and began a career in tech, mainly working in brand and marketing at various tech companies. Now after six years in tech, I have no desire to work for soulless companies.&nbsp; I believe every designer has a moment of existential dread when they ask “why does my work matter?” Some days it’s easy to answer that question and other days, not so much. Ultimately, I just want to feel proud of my work and help people in the process. If you’re down for that, let’s talk.Available for:Print &amp; digital design Video &amp; photo art direction Small-scale animation Illustration and lettering Cake commisions (Bay Area only) <img width="601" height="601" width_o="601" height_o="601" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/69ee9fab5edc7c7ee5e8e2706bc2d9e640e5da770d07615964c0f2c6debe7716/flan.png" data-mid="83197534" border="0" data-no-zoom="true" data-draggable data-rotation="12.5" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/601/i/69ee9fab5edc7c7ee5e8e2706bc2d9e640e5da770d07615964c0f2c6debe7716/flan.png" />
