• Founder / Creative Director at Cold White Fire Studio & Cold White Fire Institute

  Our Institute Branding

  Our branding represents an authentic and eternal light that radiates within. Each of us has a flame that kindles within our body, mind, and spirit.

  We can strengthen our flames within and increase the intensity of which our light shines.

  One’s flame is the energy and eternal light within.

  Our Institute Philosophy

  We are individuals passionate about helping others find their flame within. Through education we can strengthen, increase, edify, and radiate pure light and happiness from within.

  Each individual is a being of light within unique sets of challenges, talents, and abilities. As we work together in synergy we can achieve goals to prosper in innovation, creativity, and perpetuating balanced energy.

  Cold White Fire Studio “Treasure Life Memories Through Synergy” prepares individuals for an apprenticeship program in conjunction with Cold White Fire Institute “Ignite Your Light Within” by educating prospective employees.

  When individuals center on light there are limitless possibilities.

  Mission Statement

  We believe everyone with a disability or not has a flame to contribute and should be able to get a quality education with guaranteed work employment and life coaching.

• Heat Plant Technician at Snow College

  Ephraim, Utah, United States of America

  December 2018 - Present

  I take precision statistics of the heat plant boilers to make sure everything is working and functioning properly. The three boilers we have here at Snow College keep the school heated and comfortable. It's been a great job for me, as on the hour we take our numbers, and after that we can work on anything we like for either personal or business.

• Automation Manufacturing & Precision Machinery at Mountainland Technical College MTECH

  Orem, Utah

  January 2018 - December 2018

  I'm currently attending Mountainland Technical College (MTECH) where I'm learning about automation, 3D printing, robotics, CNC machines, metallurgy, machinist, and switching to metal as my canvas. I'm still going to work with wood, but combining the two with design, 3D modeling, environment concept art, matte painting, and sound engineering.

• Cabinetry & Architectural Woodworking and Engineering Graphics Design Technology at Utah Valley University

  Orem, Utah, United States of America

  August 2017 - December 2017

  I will be attending Utah Valley University this Fall 2017 semester to learn more about Architectural Woodworking & Cabinetry and Engineering Design Technology. Basically, I want to expand my design skills into 3D printing on wood with C&C machines and create 3D modeling from my environment concepts and graphic design experience as wood as my canvas.

  I am laser engraving digital matte paintings, custom line art, concept artwork onto my woodworking projects within the program.

  I'm building woodworking projects from rough concept sketches, refined sketches, plans, cut lists, orthographic views, photography reference from my Digital Rebel XTi (an oldie but a goodie), merged into 2D matte painting, digital painting, and concept art, to then merge with 3D modeling to make the physical woodworking object.

  I have been taking photos and video steps of my work so you can see my process of how I am integrating these different things into individual projects.

  I feel my work is unique and different from work here in ArtStation. I have yet to see someone who does similar things, but open to those who can.

  Cold White Fire | Treasure Life Memories Through Art ☺︎ ♥︎ ✍︎
  
  Mission
  
  We teach traditional and digital media art to online learners as a way to find hope through life challenges.

  My duties as a Creative Art Director include the organization of the advertising and marketing for our family owned genealogy restoration, branding, and woodworking business. I am in charge of overseeing the vision for products sold on our website and within our home occupation.

  I planned to advertise through social media channels including Blogger, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, mIRC, Skype, Slack, Soundcloud, Tumblr, Twitter, WordPress 4.7.5, Wunderlist, and Yahoo. 

As a Graphic Artist & Graphic Designer, I researched, developed, designed, and created the look and feel of the Cold White Fire website, logos, banners, headers, videos, textual content, images, flyers, icons, and everything but what WordPress creates with the theme I bought and used as a structure for the website.

  The logo for Cold White Fire was developed over personal study, journaling, meditation, pouring over scriptural analysis and symbolism of the concept of light, fire, healing, and communication with our Supreme Creator. Cold White Fire is symbolic for an authentic and eternal fire that radiates within that guides our hyper-creative passion and inspiration! 

As a Web Designer for the Cold White Fire website, I am self-taught and the creation of the website has been a large overtaking timeline and workflow.
