Footwear has been a lifelong passion of mine, starting with collecting and evolving into creation. I remember my first pair of Gilbert Arenas "Agent Zero's" that I proudly displayed to my middle school classmates, feeling a sense of individuality. As I grew older, I became more interested in footwear and the community's fascination with it, spending time researching and collecting sought-after shoes.During my time at Missouri Southern, I worked as an assistant manager at FinishLine, where I gained valuable insight into the presentation of footwear to the masses and learned about various types of products and their functions.Today, my passion for footwear is stronger than ever, fueled by the endless opportunities for learning and growth in the industry. In the past year and a half, I have transitioned from 2D design and conceptualizing to 3D design, modeling, and rendering, playing a crucial role in promoting sustainability in the industry. Our team was able to use 3D models to replace physical samples for customer presentations, reducing waste and increasing my passion for both footwear and innovation in the industry.Skills/Interests: Adobe Creative Suite, Rhino 3D, Romans CAD Software, Modo, Keyshot, Blender, Gravity Sketch.
