My journey? It's been a rollercoaster ride—working in-house, hustling in agencies, and soaking up a mosaic of skills and viewpoints including all of the exciting advancements in ai. This mishmash has sculpted me into the creative I am today—versatile, adaptable, data-driven and always hungry for more.
I thrive on progress. Every project is a chance to level up. I'm that person who's geeking out over each new challenge because, hey, it's another opportunity to fine-tune my craft and expand my skill set
So, here's to the journey—where each project isn't just a gig but a chance to grow, evolve, and create something truly amazing.
