What I'm looking for

I'm interested in software development, AI, automation, and building creative applications that bring technology and visual experiences together.

At Southern New Hampshire University, I'm pursuing a bachelor's degree in Computer Software Engineering and building hands-on programming experience with Python, Java, C++, and JavaScript. I'm interested in software development, AI, automation, and creative applications that connect technology with visual experiences.

At Hero4Hire Creative, I created graphics and animation for TV, web, games, medical, and multimedia campaigns, taking videos from concept to animation and contributing visual effects, compositing, and sound design. My work included campaigns for brands such as HBO, Johnson & Johnson, PayPal, Dell, and Sallie Mae.

As a freelance Senior Motion Graphic Designer at TJordanArt.com, I continue to create 2D and 3D animation and design. I also taught compositing and motion graphics at University of Massachusetts Lowell, where students worked with tools including Adobe After Effects and Cinema 4D.
