Web Design Portfolio
I create websites using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and XHTML. Using CSS enables designers to work quickly and efficiently by utilizing something referred to as a "stylesheet". Using stylesheets separates the (content) HTML from (formatting) presentation of a website. CSS will make your website will decreas the size of your web pages making for quicker download speeds.

Graphic Design Portfolio
Being creative is a great start for any design project. I have the ability to be open-minded yet very technical when it comes to designing. Using vibrant colors and imagery with easy to read information is what I strive for when making a graphic design project. The clients' should always get what they envision.

Collage Portfolio
I've been creating collages since I began using the Macintosh in college. Always being a Fine Artist at heart before learning the computer, making collages is as close as it gets to painting and drawing. Using a pen tablet, I mask images and morph them into a beautiful collage. Also included are "colorized image" collages which are outlines of a photo with a solid color fill. Another type of collage that I recently made are called "vector collages". Vector collages are similar to the colorized image collages except that these have no resolution and the shapes are drawn mathematically. These are printed on plexiglass with acrylic ink. If you would like to view the photographs of the final printed pieces hung in Camp Pendleton, California, view my Facebook page.
Photo Collages
I get sent a ton of photos and combine them to make works of art. These are printed on plexiglass and range from 30" x 40 " to 48" x 96". These photo collages are to be hung inside Army/Military buildings.
Vector Collages
This project was different in the way I created each collage as vector art and they all contained extreme sports. I was sent blueprints of the building and almost every image was overlapped by one another. There were 8 buildings total each with it's own color pallete.
Colorized Imagery
These colorized images were produced and sized just like the photo collages. I take a few photos and perform a technique where the image goes black and white, with as much contrast as possible. Then I fill them with colors specified by the client.
