After graduating from Oliver Ames High School, I attended UMass Dartmouth where I studied in the Design program there. I was a very involved student at UMass, being on the Varsity Tennis Team and Theta Delta Chi Fraternity.

I acquired my Bachelor's Degree in Digital Media in 2010. I also took a lot of classes in Graphic Design and Drawing.

After graduating college, I worked as a part-time Production Assistant while also filling in temporary labor positions at warehouses and factories. I also held several freelance jobs that involved designing mailed advertisements, event posters, logos, business cards, and office templates.

I then worked for Richards Micro-Tool (later renamed Arch Cutting Tools - Plymouth), where I worked for over 8 years. My role there included designing the company catalog and email campaigns, as well as website maintenance, and sales and customer service duties as needed.

I have been actively expanding my skills as much as possible lately. I acquired my Google UX Design Certificate in February 2023, and my Meta Social Media Marketing Certificate in December 2023.
