I'm a designer and illustrator from upstate NY. I studied at Rochester Institute of Technology, where I have an MFA in Computer Graphics Design with an Illustration concentration, I also have degrees in Visual Communication Design and Anthropology from Nazareth College.

When I'm not designing, I'm planning my next backpacking trip to Europe, running, biking, or tackling a DIY project. I'm passionate about sustainability, non-toxic living, and animal rehabilitation. In another life, I would have been a doctor of parasitology.

My go-to conversation starters? Here are a couple of fun facts:
I have an Etsy shop where I sell sticker posters for people who climb mountains - etsy.com/shop/heckyesstudio
I lived in Ireland for 6 months
As a kid, I wanted to be an Archaeologist. I spent 10 years volunteering on a dig excavating mastodons
I can run a 5k in 20:45, but I love a good duathlon
I Irish danced competitively for 12 years and went to regional and national competitions
I have artwork created by a boa constrictor and a baboon hanging in my house
