A native of Grand Forks, ND, I am a graduate of The Art Institute International Minnesota, earning a Bachelor's Degree in Graphic Design. During my time there, I worked an internship as a Graphic Designer for a mobile app company, before moving to Fargo, ND in 2014. I began working as a Graphic Designer at Border States Electric in their Corporate Office Marketing Department for three years. During that time, I created numerous corporate marketing and promotional materials.
From there, I was blessed to begin a Graphic Design position at Scheels All Sports at their Corporate Headquarters. I became one of the lead designers, creating a wide array of full-on design campaigns – specializing in fishing, hunting, and camping. I meticulously designed catalogs, flyers, posters, logos, brochures, billboards, and digital designs to effectively promote and enhance the visibility of various outdoor and recreational products and services.
In 2022, I left Scheels and jumped onboard with Justin to start 701 Wraps. From there I built all of the branding for the business, created custom vehicle wraps, logos, signage, and operated the shop on a daily basis.
2023 has led me to my dream of doing freelance work full-time.
