    I have a BFA in Graphic Design. The name drop from the school I went to seems to be very attractive to most prospective employers, as they typically value the type of training / critical thinking skills that were imparted upon me.

    Although i'm still learning and growing every day i am quite confident in my ability to design meaningful and beautiful visual artifacts.

    In retrospect, the whole college experience was a catch-22, massive debt and whatnot. But at least it's gotten me to where i'm currently at in life which is surely a helluva better than before I had my degree.
