Biography

I took a few graphic design courses early on in high school. I really enjoyed the field of graphic design technology but because of a move I couldn’t continue studying. When I graduated I heard about the program at Saskpolytechnic and decided that I would pursue this opportunity.

Interesting Fact

I love snowboarding. I find that graphic design and snowboarding are very similar to me in the sense that they both push me out of my comfort zone.

Essential Skills

I have found that reading text is a very useful Essential Skill to possess in this field. Graphic design in general revolves around reading instructions, extracting information and applying these concepts in a creative way. Continuous learning is another valuable Essential Skill as you need to keep up with the latest trends.
