Hi There!
My name is Priscilla and from a young age, I have always had a passion for creativity and have strived to make that my career. My story below is a little more about me and to inspire others hoping to get into the creative industry. :)
I enjoy creating visual content that communicates an important message. I strive to create designs that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional for the client and their curated audience.

My Journey
High School
I attended Parkside Collegiate Institute in St Thomas Ontario where I pursued visual arts which allowed me to start exploring mediums such as painting, pastels, and sculpture. I continued studying various art forms such as photography and media arts. During my senior years, I reached out and joined the Arts and Culture Specialist High Skills Major (SHSM) program where I had the opportunity to go on educational art trips and earn training certificates in workshops. I also completed a summer co-op with two studios: Romantic Designs Artist Studio as a marketing & social media assistant and Kimmik Photography as a photography assistant. From these co-ops, I was able to learn the business side of the art industry.
Gap Year
After high school, I enrolled in the Bealart Foundations post-secondary program at H.B. Beal Secondary School in London Ontario where I was able to learn eight different studios of art (textiles, ceramics, film, painting, printmaking, photography, illustration, and sculpture) and explore a variety of techniques. This program also included art history and portfolio building as well as learning from local artists.
College
After Covid 19 hit in 2020 I decided to pursue an advanced diploma in Graphic Design online through Centennial College which prepared me for a multidisciplinary design career. In my last year of study, I had an internship with Movia Media as a design & marketing assistant. I graduated in April of 2023.
University
After graduating from Centennial, I decided to continue learning to expand my design skills in UX, 2D & 3D animation as well as mobile design by taking the Digital Art Production certificate from Toronto Metropolitan University (via the Chang School of Continuing Education earning university credits).
