Career Story
Art and english were my most relevant subjects in highschool. I studied graphic design at Conestoga College (in Kitchener) and then continued my education at Griffith University (Brisbane, Australia).
After school I worked in graphic design at a handful of agencies, taught part time, and built my freelance clients. I eventually quit the design and teaching jobs to focus all my time on self-employment.
