My journey, marked by both the privilege of serving in the Air Force and the adversity of homelessness, has uniquely positioned me to empathize with and serve my fellow veterans. The creative outlet I discovered in graphic design has become a powerful tool for healing and connection.

I am grateful for the opportunity to utilize my skills to craft artwork that brings joy and happiness to those who have sacrificed so much. Through my designs, I strive to honor the unique experiences and sacrifices of veterans by incorporating elements that evoke nostalgia and pride. By creating artwork that serves as a positive reminder and a moment of reflection, I hope to contribute to the well-being and mental health of my fellow veterans.
