I am a graduate of the University of Cincinnati and have recently moved to Brooklyn. Ideally I’m looking for contract/freelance to hire in the NYC area. Although I have been doing independent freelance work for the last few months, I am looking forward to returning to a team setting. My education and work experience have equipped me to adapt quickly to a variety of office settings, and I would love the opportunity to share a comprehensive collection of my work with interested employers in the commutable area.
