I never want to be like anyone else. To be a graphic designer is to purposefully stick out like a sore thumb. It means to be heard without speaking. I know that words may not easily flow out my mouth, but my mind is filled with ideas that force people to look. I want people to stare. I want people to be surprised at what I am capable of. I want to speak without speaking. Which is why I create. I was born to create. Creative people are already unique which makes design an even greater challenge. A designer must stand out amongst a crowd of people who already stand out. I love the challenge. I live for the challenge. I want to try everything, and be everywhere, and see everything. There is so much of the world that is unseen. Graphic design is perfect for me because there are endless opportunities due to its plethora of disciplines. If I could try every form of design at least once, I will die happy.  My loyalty will always lie with illustrative designs. I want to have child-like wonderment even when I am Eighty years old with arthritis, blindness, and back problems. If I had to choose one goal as a graphic designer, it is to make things that people have never seen.
