ABOUT

Who Am I?

A Queens native (St.Albans / Cambria Heights) who migrated to Brooklyn. A Hungry Hip-Hop Junkie with a passion for Art & Design from an early age. I took things apart out of curiosity, and enjoyed putting them back together. Especially model cars and electric R/C cars.

My grandmother battled with PKD and energy draining dialysis treatments. Watching her struggle with the disease and not knowing/understanding what she was going through, lead me to where I’m currently employed.  The National Kidney Foundation, Inc. where I’m the Web Design Manager. I’m responsible for the design and front-end development for a wide range of projects (web/mobile, desktop eLearning CDs for medical professionals, interactive memorial slide-shows honoring living/deceased organ donors on display at national events, to on-line customizable Patient Care Plans).
