I am grateful to have received the Course Director Award at Full Sail University for my Project Portfolio Class. The images are my fun design of a future library called “The Archivist”. She is well trained in data retrieval, mob de-escalation, and emergency medical care…along with extensive counter military training. Protecting books is a full-time job!

I feel my job is complete when one of my works evokes an emotional and historical response. Elissa used to visit Silverton, Colorado with her family.
