What I'm looking for

I’m interested in digital accessibility and web technologies, and I’m open to conversation and tips as I learn.

As a freelance illustrator at Self Employed, I’ve delivered commissioned artwork to international clients and developed digital products, including printable art, brushes, and design resources.

Through GitHub Portfolio, I authored technical documentation used by 5,000+ users and provided direct support to more than 50 end users. I also filed bug reports and feature requests for community projects.

As a computer skills and general education tutor, I designed technology instruction and study plans that helped students improve test scores. I’m studying for a BS in Information Technology at Western Governors University, and I’m interested in digital accessibility, web technologies, and drawing.
