GRAPHIC DESIGN and PHOTOGRAPHY
These are a few examples of my graphic design and photography abilites. While they have nothing to do with audio, I feel that my ability to design and create imagery is a huge advantage in producing a final product that stays true to the goal of each project I work on.
