Career Objectives

As an enthusiastic and motivated student majoring in Studio Art, at the University of the Pacific, I aim to acquire a solid grounding in contemporary art and various artistic cultures. Recent pieces of work have been produced through mediums such as photographs, etchings, sketches, and silk screen prints. The majority of my work has embedded a range of influences; extracting from analytical drawings, street and urban art along with elements from contemporary movements. Currently I am  looking to apply these creative skills within a business environment. Specifically I am seeking for a position within the marketing and advertising domain.
