I believe I own the talents to change lives through art. My capabilities as a technician are heavily emphasized within the marketing framework of business.

Painting and drawing are my first loves, however both the digital world and photography have boosted my interest in these raw mediums. Georgia College continued my enthusiasm to professionally exhibit work and use creative property in growing businesses.

My involvement with the Auto Collision Repair Industry was an extension of the small business management and trade skills experienced in college.
I find that organizations are successful when they captivate their target market effectively using artistic candor. My interests are fueled by the 'hands on' studio work of higher education and I intend to make that seamless through all of my business inquiries. Sinceriously,
