______________________________
Time at current organization: 3 years.
Greatest achievement: I became design manager at Avatar New York. It took me 2 years but I got to the spot I wanted.
Greatest Influence: My parents they told me to get a job that had the things I wanted to do, they said “if you’re not happy with you’re job then you’re living a lie” and I have took those words and actually got a job that included the things I love.
Tips or advice: Do well in school. If there is any open classes for graphic design in you’re community then join it, because even if they teach you things you already know, they may have something that is new to you and you’ll learn from it.

Next big thing: Go back to school and earn a masters degree, so I could actually move a step further in my job. I wish to become in a higher level than the rest of my colleagues.
Decision do over: I regret not taking community classes for graphic design, I could’ve learned more and would have entered my job with a bit more experience than everyone else.
Team: I work with 5 other people, they are the best team I could work with
Budget: You’re too little to know that, not available
