Welcome!

Hi there!

Welcome to my blog.  I will be posting about my day, activities/crafts, my freelance designs, projects, inspiration, and responses to articles and or readings.    

To tell you a little about myself... I am currently a sophomore at the University of Kansas pursuing a B.F.A degree in Design emphasis in Visual Communications.  Enrolled in 15 hours keeps me very busy.

My high school year I was very interested in fashion/design.  I fell in love with graphics my senior year when I was accepted to an e-communication program at another high school for 3 hours during the morning.  My teacher really inspired me to follow through with graphics and every since graphics and I are inseparable!

I would like to do an internship this summer for graphics, and eventually when I graduate the University of Kansas do packaging design, advertisement, posters, business images, logos, icons, and lots more...it is a never ending list. 

Well to tell you about home I am not an only child.  I have a sister who is in her senior year of high school.  Not only do I have a sister but two great loving parents and two electus parrots.  When I am at home I like to go running with my dad, sketch, cook breakfast food... I  L O V E  BREAKFAST FOOD, shopping, SLEEP (I don't get enough of this), and catch some episodes of How I met your Mother,  Two in a half men, and Glee, I listen to music (all sorts), and read a lot of fiction books.  Currently I am reading WATCHMEN comic and blah blah blah blah! Enough about me! 

Enjoy the site!
