I graduated with honors from the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) with a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology, and concentrations in Interactive Media Design and Digital Publishing.

I frequently took art classes for students K-12 at the Cleveland Institute of Art.

I am a visual thinker. I completed a 3 year Gifted and Talented Education for 6th-8th grade at Beachwood City Schools.

I started drawing and creating art when I was a young child in the Seventies. I started designing with pixels on computers as a kid in the Eighties.
