Why Non-Profit Communications?

I want my life's work to be more than selling sponges.

I have alway had a deep passion for graphic design and communications, but I also knew that I never wanted to "sell sponges" - create content and ads for a product I don't believe in or care about. I want to spend every moment of my life making the world a better place, and I am confident that the best way I can make a meaningful impact is by bringing my communications skills to non-profits that are already making that difference for those who need it most: young adults, wildlife, and the environment.

"The purpose of our live is to help others through it."
