Before diving into graphic design, web development, and cybersecurity, I was once a cowboy, growing up on a ranch. I’ve also worked in construction, casino surveillance, and video creation, blending hands-on experience with digital creativity. I’m fascinated by mythology, folklore, and storytelling, and I’m a huge fan of Wes Anderson and the Coen Brothers. If I had a theme song, it might just be “Hotel California.”
