I have always had a love for the arts. Even at a young age I knew that someday this creative field would become my major and career.
I originally started at Cabrini as a studio art major not having any intention of adding a second major, but I’m thankful I did.
Today, nearly all design is composed of computer graphics. Having the skills as a fine artist only enhances my abilities to draw and create through a computer.
The graphic design program at Cabrini College is exciting and intense. As a graphic design major, I gained the knowledge of Adobe software, including Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Flash and Dreamweaver.
I also had the experience of producing print and multimedia projects including package design, magazine, corporate identity and Web sites to name a few of my college experiences.
As a senior, I interned with a stationery design studio and boutique. I felt prepared and confident while working there and gained a positive experience in the workforce.
My experience as a double major was very rewarding. I feel I have learned the skills of two completely different worlds, fine art and computer graphics, and have the chance to bring them both together.
