     - London, United Kingdom
    Over the three years on UAL's graphic and media course, I had the opportunity to challenge myself and try various areas of design. The facilities allowed me to learn techniques such as printmaking to utilising its darkroom, as well as signing up to workshops to gain skills in programmes such as adobe dream weaver and adobe premiere pro. I have also had the opportunity to take part on a year long workshop with 'Futures Studio' that ended with us showcasing our work on IAM Weekend 2018 in Barcelona. Along side the creative side of the course, undertaking contextual & theoretical studies (CTS) have taught me the histories, theories and debates around the subject of design and visual communication. I enjoyed this part of the course greatly as it touched on sociology and history, subjects I have always been fond on. It has impacted how research and develop my work focusing on intent and communication while also being visually captivating to the viewers eyes.
