Right from my childhood, I have always been drawn to the creative field, whether it’s art or music. All my hobbies revolve around art, which has influenced my overall personality.
I was 15 when I discovered my love for storytelling. I decided to explore it and I ended up studying my bachelor’s degree in journalism and mass communications, which opened up a whole world of possibilities. During my graduation, I realized that I had taken a liking to design and I understood that storytelling need not be limited to filmmaking or any one specific medium.
So, I started doing different internships related to graphic design, developing my interest in that field. I finally decided to take my studies a step further, gaining even more knowledge about graphic design to be better equipped for my career.
For six months, I was hunting for the “perfect course” in graphic design, and finally, after using all the possible keywords, I found the Master in Visual & Digital Media, which was everything I ever wanted. I am yet to figure out what I want to do with my career, but I am pretty positive that I will figure it out.
