I was processed through the public education system. Ironically, the bombardment of dry academic learning growing up provoked me to make pictures that were lacking from my education. In college, I found that I could use my pictures not only to fill hours of tedium but to understand ideas. It grew into a tool to process information and to engage in the world around me.
During my stay at The Rochester Institute of Technology, I was introduced to the Deaf Community. With sign language relying on expression and gesture, I found myself wondering if my visual explanations might work for others as well.
During the 3 years I have studied Illustration at RIT, I have been actively working with visual translations for the Department of Access Services through NTID.
