My postsecondary experience:
Before my
studies as a YSDN student, I completed one year of Art Fundamentals (2016) and
two years of Visual and Creative Arts (VCA) (2016 - 2017) at Sheridan College.
Those programs taught me the basics of Fine Arts and refined my skills in art
and illustration.
During my time in VCA, I took a graphic design course in my final year with Todd Barsanti who was an amazing professor. It was then, I decided graphic design was best suited for a my career path. Thus, leading to my enrollment in YSDN.

I am the type of designer
that includes my artistic abilities whenever possible to produce charming
illustrations in my design work. I like to include illustrations in my work because it adds
an extra element for an engaging and interesting story to the design and
product.
I believe designs that tell a story through a combination of illustration and typography, give it a special quality that the viewers can resonate with.
