About

I go by the nickname Pudge. I was given the nickname when I was about two years old because I was a "pudgy" baby. The nickname has stuck with me throughout the years and has felt like my real name. I love that my real name has become more of a mystery unless you have already glimpsed my resume.

I have a degree in Graphic Design and Illustration. I have 8+ years of experience as a Graphic Designer (5 of which have been at a Senior Designer level at my current job) and continue to freelance for many.

My personal brand is House Grub. It's a place where I can share more of my 'hands-on' art, such as my Halloween/cosplay masks, which can be found on my Etsy page.

Random things about me:

  • Plant collector… can never have enough houseplants.

  • I own a pug named Banksy and a cat named Boba.

  • Thanks to Drive to Survive on Netflix, I’m a fan of F1 racing (Team Redbull).

  • Started CrossFit in 2019 and only rolled my ankle once (so far).

  • All-time favorite movie is The Burbs.
