Hey! I’m Jaz.
I’m a fourth-year student enrolled in the Honours Bachelor of Interaction Design program at Sheridan College. I have a strong love for typography and colour. Which leads me to my passion for creating visual beauty. My eye is often drawn to the simple grace of nature and my surroundings. Getting inspiration from the world that envelops me through travel and living my best life.
