About Me

Need a Graphic Designer?
I have a degree in Design and 3 years freelance experience!
I just graduated with a degree in Communication Design from SIUC. I miss school. I have a 8 year old daughter named Hannah who doesn't like to clean her room. I love my kid, but single parenting is really difficult.
A few things that rock: Trogdor the burninator (if you don't like homestarruner.com, you suck and I hate you) Electronic music and punk rock...my two favorites. PeZ is pretty cool...and stuff from the 80's....it's so cheesy it's awesome!
I have 2 companies:
Zesty Flyers
My personal freelance design company, in business since 2004. If you need something designed, contact me. I do flyers, logos, business cards, resumes, promotional materials and pretty much any printable design. Here is a link to my website.

my other company is called:
www.cafepress.com/fresh_cut
Click the banner to visit my clothing shop! It's not only a way to make money with my design skills, it's also part of my Senior Thesis project (an experiment in branding).
I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!

Television:

Most Adult Swim Stuff, some anime. I love Fullmetal Alchemist - yes I am probably a dork, but I like it, so shut up! I also love to watch the History Channel & the Discovery Channel - hey that stuff is cool!
I am such a geek...

Books:

I love short stories (especially stephen king's), Poetry, and reading about psychology....among other things. Lately I've been reading Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles...good stuff. I think I have 2 more books to go in the series - I'm on book 6.

Heroes:

Not really heroes, but people (or characters) I think are cool : Bob Marley, Tank Girl, Adam West (on Family Guy, mainly).Heros: My dad, grandparents, little bro, and best friend Casey. They are amazing people.
