2. What influenced you to pursue Graphic Design?
I was influenced by art and the idea of introducing and creating things, I can express myself in a cool way, without describing things as they aren’t, everything in graphic design has a reason and this kind of art is a way of expressing very interesting.

3. Could you please describe the educational process required to become a Graphic Designer?
You will first learn compositive skills, them you will know how to handle programs on the computer, you’ll make lots of projects which will make you understand how to use the things you have closer to you to create.
