I am a Cybersecurity major, but I have a deep passion for graphic design and creative work. In high school, I took a year-long graphic design class. In that class, we utilized Adobe Illustrator for half the year and Adobe Photoshop for the rest of the year. In that course, we used the latest (at the time) Wacom pen tablets in conjunction with Illustrator and Indesign to do a number of projects. Some of the projects included movie posters and creative drawings.
I have also done a myriad of creative work projects myself. I have designed banner logos for my Youtube Channel, Podcast cover art, double-exposure picture editing (I overlayed a gif of a city with moving cars on a still portrait), I have done promotional designs for a digital writing course, and even magazine ready image editing. A majority of the projects I have done will be found on my graphic design portfolio page.
I created this website utilizing WordPress and Namecheap web hosting. I created this website with the sole intention of displaying my portfolio from all the different backgrounds I have. This website includes projects I have done, the projects range from Cybersecurity to Finance and Graphic Design. The website includes a lot of individual pages and lots of moving elements. The website showcases my proficiency with website design.
I took a course named “Digital Writing” also known as “307T.” This course introduces students to issues of writing in various digital environments like web pages, email, blogs, wikis, and discussion boards. It also introduces fundamentals of hypertext authoring, digital and visual rhetoric, and image manipulation. In this class I had to complete a lot of CSS and HTML assignments. I had to create a webpage using HTML and CSS only, no drag and drop plugins.
The combination of my classes and my projects I believe make me a qualified candidate for a position in the graphic design field.
