I'm a graphic designer who has recently graduated from Lenoir Community College's Graphics program. I have received both my Associate in Applied Science for Advertising & Graphic Design and Graphic Arts & Imaging Technology.
I've always enjoyed being creative. From drawing and making videos, I have always found ways to let my creativity shine. The work I've done at LCC has helped me develop my skills and find new ways to express myself creatively.
