I'M A GRAPHIC DESIGNER WITH A SPECIALTY IN PRODUCT COMPLIANCE
In the 90’s being a lawyer when you grew up was all the rage…but that didn’t quite fit.
I studied law during my bachelor undergrad at Quinnpiac University, with a minor in graphic design. I interned at a firm that focused in patent law and with the US Attorney General Office. Not quite thrilled, I moved on to get my Masters Degree in Digital Design (also from Quinnpiac University).
That was some time ago though. Here’s what I’ve been up to professionally since then…
