I have recently moved to Vancouver, and am actively seeking employment; here's a little bit about myself: This past spring I have graduated from University of Alberta with a Bachelor of Design degree; I majored in graphic design, illustration, and printmaking. After five busy years of schooling I am very eager to try myself out in ‘the real world’, and would love to be employed as a graphic designer or illustrator ... or both. Please feel free to contact me for any inquiries.
