INTERIOR DESIGN, ARCHITECTURE, GRAPHIC DESIGN

FOR AS LONG AS I CAN REMEMBER, I'VE HAD A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS DESIGN. THROUGH MY EXPERIENCES AND EDUCATION I HAVE BUILT VARIOUS SKILLS AND ALTHOUGH SOME ARE NOT RELATED TO EACH OTHER, THEY DESCRIBE ME. I LOVE A CHALLENGE AND WHEN I DON'T KNOW SOMETHING, I DESIRE TO LEARN IT. AFTER ALL, IF YOU AREN'T LEARNING, ARE YOU LIVING?
