⭐⭐ I envision myself contributing to teams that push boundaries, challenge the status quo, and confront pressing issues in bold, unprecedented ways.
⭐⭐ I’m confident in my ability to integrate my professional skills across a range of disciplines, including full stack development, information architecture, news and television, social media, and multi-platform media like web, radio, print, illustration, design, marketing, and advertising.
I never stop reading. James Baldwin is my favorite author. I listen to every genre of music under the sun. I've played alto and tenor saxophone since I was seven years old. I even played in a jazz band! I'm an award-nominated gun violence prevention activist who has worked with families from Parkland, Uvalde, Sandy Hook, Columbine, and many more. I'm a big fan of art that pisses people off. I seek out people who, like me, forge trends, not merely react to them. 🔥
Shepard Fairey, Julianne Moore, Laura Dern, and my idols in art, activism, and advertising: Manuel and Patricia Oliver.
