Education

I graduated from Bronxville High School in 2021 with honors as well as innovation awards, the Spencer Memorial Art Award, Scholastic Art & Writing Awards and a 4.11 GPA. Later I graduated Spring 2025 from Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) earning a BFA in Sequential Art with Minors in Storyboarding and Drawing. I'm proud to have maintained a 3.95 GPA. Throughout my time here I've discovered that my life’s passion is storytelling, reading, writing and drawing.  I would love the opportunity to work in a creative position helping bring stories to life.
