I’m a millennial and this is my story. Starting young, at age 7, all I wanted for Christmas was a computer. By age 9, I was building html websites in Dreamweaver. At age 11 I started a dog-washing business, where I paid my friends to wash dogs in the neighborhood, and collected a percentage of their earnings. At age 16 I founded Enlighteneer Corporation, an education-focused tutoring company centered on SAT and AP exam preparation, incorporated in the State of California. When I was 18 I attended Drexel University as a business and marketing major. 

Fast forward several years, and I’ve worked as managing editor of an independent newspaper, graphic designer and director of operations for a multi-million dollar restaurant corporation, and most recently I founded Design Over Matter, a Limited Liability Company located in Santa Barbara, California focused on providing affordable graphic design, web design, and social media management services to local businesses in the Santa Barbara and surrounding communities.
