As a creative individual studying Art and Design at Stanmore College, I learned to use different materials and mediums that gave me the ability to express my vast interests in a variety of design language formats. I joined Stanmore College, obtained my GCSEs and submerged myself into Digital Art and Design. I learned a foundation of artistry, several Adobe Creative Suites applications and my creative capabilities. Competency with software languages allowed me to be more personal with my projects.
