ABOUT ME

I have loved motorsports and racing as a whole for my entire life. I was born in Seattle, Washington in a family that had no interest in motorsports -- let alone experience -- but before I had even learned how to walk, I took a particular liking to a monster truck DVD my mom had purchased for me at a toy store... and the rest is history.

I got into NASCAR when I was nine years old after playing NASCAR Inside Line on the Xbox 360 at my friend's house. Over the years, I have developed an appreciation for just about anything with four wheels and an engine with it, but I am primarily most passionate about stock cars and monster trucks even still to this day.

My passion for graphic design began when I downloaded the painting program paint.net for the first time at 11 years old with the desire to learn how to make monster truck paint schemes for the digital gaming platform Roblox. Over the years, my interests eventually expanded to include stock cars, and with it came a desire to create paint scheme concepts for other games, such as NASCAR Racing 2003 Season.

During my sophomore year of high school, I decided to take a graphic design class, where I first learned Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. This experience only boosted my passion for graphic design and I continued taking graphic design classes throughout the rest of my high school years!

I have always had a particular love for photography of any kind; whether it be nature photography, racing photography, or anything in between, if it involves operating a camera then I'll take a liking to it. I also enjoy writing and statistics; I spend a lot of time looking through statistics throughout the world of NASCAR and Monster Jam and I enjoy sharing my thoughts and opinions.

In the academic world, I am currently in college where I am studying political science at Arizona State University.
