Houston TX -- (218) 213-7657 -- lavalleynate@gmail.com

I am a versatile designer who has worked extensively with audio, video, and graphics. I am inspired by the wonderful weirdness of the world around me. I want to make people think, "That's cool! I never saw it like that before," and inspire them to try something new themselves.
