About me

Inspiration

At a young age, I always loved the arts. I started drawing when I was 6 and never stopped after that. Art class was always my favorite subject in school (next to history class). As I got older, I thought to myself, "how can I turn this passion into a career and translate it into this day and age?". Graphic Design was the answer to my question. The rest is history.

Works #1

Raul's Landscaping

Logo redesign for Raul's landscaping business. Center leaf was redone, as well as the move of "Raul" from center portion alongside "Landscape", to the top above the entire design. Another item that was done was the creation of mockups on a business card, as well as T-shirts per request of the owner of the business.

Works #2

PLANT CATALOG

While looking for a personal project to work on and improve my Graphic Design, the overall idea of a plant catalog was inspired by my recent purchases of house plants that really have livened up my house and brought more fresh air, beauty, and calmness as well. I wanted to bring these plants into the foremost front of peoples minds, so that they too could share in more life.

Works #3

Habitat for humanity

This project was for Habitat of Humanity (Kenosha), and was a Home Dedication Signage Package for newly built homes for people in need in the area. Partnered with the local head of Habitat for Humanity (Kenosha) via our Professor of Graphic Design at UWP, we were split into groups and assigned specific areas of design in which each group would accomplish certain tasks. Other areas of design were (but not limited to): Trailer Design (for truck trailer), New Pamphlet designs, etc.

Works #4

rehabilitation project

Rehabilitation Project Mural for downtown Racine, WI. Graphic Design Senior Class was tasked with sketching, mocking up, and doing finishing designs for the owner of the building.
Amongst our group of 16-17, one design was picked and chosen to be input onto the rear wall area of the building. Design above is based on a poem selected by me, written by a local Racine poet. As a class, we were given a multitude of options when it came to poems, before eventually selecting one that we liked.
Overall theme of the design however is based on my inspiration of "The Great Gatsby". and the aspect of progression, and how eventually once us as human beings get what we desire or achieve or goals, there is this never-ending hunger for more, and that sometimes never ceases.
