Studying and working in the United States has been my goal since middle school. My three years of study with Emporia State University, two years of design (concentrated in floral design) in a South Korean College, followed by more than three years of continued design experience are proof of my determination to go the distance in this field. Certainly graphic design is not only for show, but is also an important tool used to influence our society. Graphic design has the capability of carrying strong messages which is in part why I am fascinated with.
