Get To Know Me
Designer. Veteran. Brand Builder.
Born and raised in New Jersey, I grew up hooked on graffiti and cartoons—drawing on anything I could find. After high school, I joined the U.S. Navy as an Aviation Ordnanceman, where I experienced a different kind of creativity—one built on tradition,
symbols, patches, and pride.
When I transitioned out of the military, I earned my Bachelor's in Digital Art & Design and Master's in Film Production from Full Sail University. Since 2017, I've worked as Lead Graphic Designer at Agency THE, creating campaigns for clients like Coca-Cola, Orlando Magic, Universal Studios, and Barnie's Coffee.
I also founded Ordie Shack—a veteran-owned apparel brand honoring the Aviation Ordnance community. I'm Puerto Rican, and that pride shows up in everything I do. My background isn't traditional, but that's exactly what makes it work.
