What inspired you to go into graphic design?
I really like creating and sharing my ideas and thoughts through art and design. I want to speak out about important issues that are happening in the world in a creative way. My dad also worked as a graphic designer in college. Watching him work and his passion for it really inspired me to go into it! I don’t regret my decision at all. The possibilities are endless with graphic design and I am excited to see where it will take me and the messages I’ll have the opportunity to share.
