    MY BIO

    I was born in the lovely town of Elizabeth City, and lived in Key Largo for the 1st 5 years of my life. My family and I then moved to Fort Myers, where I would call my home for the next 13 years. I never really got into art until 10th grade when I started IB Photography. I really enjoyed developing film and creating prints, but I wanted more. I then decided to start using Photoshop with my color Photographs. I began to create merged images of multiple photos. At first I though my efforts resulted in failures, but with the encouragement of my teacher Mrs. Schwantes-I continued working. At the beginning of my Junior year I began to enter competitions, and I actually started winning awards. I really would not of gotten into art without my teacher Mrs. Schwantes. She always encouraged me to continue with my artwork, and she is one of the reasons why I have become an art major.

    After High School, I began the University of Florida and started art classes. Currently, I an creating a wide variety of art, but I am concentrating most of my time in video art and graphic design.
