The self is not something one finds, it’s something one creates – Thomas Szasz

I think we’re all a lot of different things, but the things we choose to be are the most important. Choosing Design was the first decision I made for who I wanted to be, not just who I was. Through the Design Program at Western Washington University, I learned to do a lot, but I also learned how to be a lot; and that matters so much more. Design is what I learned alongside creating who I wanted to be, developing meaningful connection through collaboration, and approaching the work objectively to prioritize what works

Working with a focus in print over the past year has emphasized the importance of designing with use, materials, and flexibility in mind for finished projects that are functional, consistent, and impactful
