Publication design has been a passion of mine since I was a kid. I love looking at all kinds of different books and magazines, and dreamed of creating my own. I found myself putting together handwritten stories and adding illustrations with any kind of materials I could find. There’s something about sharing stories and ideas this way that is magical to me.

As I learned about commercial art and graphic design in high school from my teacher, Paul Ender, I fell in love with grids, typography and paper. Everywhere I go, I look for new and different publications. This has evolved into the appreciation for digital publications and how they are accessed on different devices. I think discovering new ways to design a page is fascinating.
