About
I am a compulsively artistic, creative problem solver. I am currently working full time as a Director at a Boys & Girls Club. I run the programming, schedule, hire and fire staff as well as create flyers, social media posts and banners to promote my programs. I looked at my job and realized that I adore those creative elements. I enrolled in Full Sail University to get my Bachelors degree in Graphic Design. I was raised by a single mother in a low income household. I did not have access to many opportunities. As a young adult, I had to care for my mother, brother and grandmother which prevented me from going to back to school to earn my bachelors and seek the career I want. Everything I have done because I am goal oriented and headstrong. Now that everyone is safe and achieving their own goals, I can achieve mine. I currently have a 4.0 at Full Sail University.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
Currently, I am a director at a Boys & Girls Club, I could join the marketing team of a larger local club or National Staff with the network that I have. I would love to continue in the world of non-profit or humanitarianism, but I am open to all paths. It would be amazing to join a large company and gain an entirely new experience. I believe that combining my Associates in fine arts from Raritan Valley Community College, my experience in management of a non-profit, and the Graphic Design degree I am currently earning through Full Sail University will make me an asset to any future team that I join.
