I am a highly-skilled graphic designer with international awards, and honors from my Master's degree. I am deeply passionate about imparting my knowledge to people across all ages and backgrounds.

I have a rich experience teaching students and professionals about digital arts, software use, and graphic design. I have an extensive industry experience as I worked in-house for organizations like WWF/ World Wildlife Fund, Brennan Center for Justice at NYU Law, New York Institute of Technology, and more. Throughout my career, I have received awards from International Design Awards, Indigo Design Awards, Asian Center for Journalism, and more.

To me, teaching is not just about passing on knowledge, but also about letting the students ask the right questions that will make them realize solutions by themselves. I am a great coach, motivating, and friendly. I give honest, constructive criticism that will immensely help my students. Most importantly, I am very patient and caring to my students, and I am more than determined to do my best for you to get the best out of the learning experience. If given the opportunity to teach you, I won’t let you down.

My areas of expertise include: Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign); Graphic Design Techniques; Aesthetics & Theory; Branding; Writing for the Arts; Art Theory; Art History; UX/UI Writing & Development; Web Design; 3D Modeling & Animation.
