My name is Tramain and I’m a new communication design student. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Despite being a millennial, I like to keep things old school. My hobbies include skateboarding, playing the guitar, and video games(usually at the same time). The name tag in the header(thanks Heather!) represents part of my interests, with the bytes in the first two letters displaying my love for technology and the trumpet in the M relating to my interest in jazz.
Although this is my first semester in communication design, I previously was in computer information systems earning my bachelor’s degree until the career opportunities found within this degree caught my eye. I know for many a change like that seems completely left field and different, but I found using my creative side instead of my technical one is more fun and exciting. Learning about typography is important to the foundations of design, and I hope that this class will help me to design innovative creations.
