Education

     - 
    I spent a semester studying in New York, at FIT. I took advantage of the American college system and the plethora of courses available at FIT, and took classes in Sociology, Aerobics and Bookbinding, in addition to design classes including Publication Design, Advanced Typography and Screenprinting. Living in New York City gave me access to the local design community, and I regularly attended talks and events such as those at the Type Director's Club and Art Director's Club..
