About Manda

In my career at Texas State University – San Marcos, majoring in Communication Design, I focused on Interactive Design and Illustration. My goal was to learn all aspects of art and design to hone my creative skills and better myself as an individual. I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2009 and immediately began working as a web designer.

I love cute Japanese toys such as Unazukins, Blythe Dolls, and all things Sanrio. I love to sing, organize, draw, paint, and design. I am a free, caring, and nurturing soul. I don’t have time for people who think I’m weird. I work hard to keep myself centered while steering clear of the surface. I strive to balance my physical self and my divine self. I believe I sense patterns more often than most people, and therefore understand them better.
