Hello my name is Jennielyn Aquino

Welcome to my Portfolio!

 I’m a student from New York City College of Technology also known as City Tech. I’m currently enrolled in Communication Design field and am planning on becoming a graphic designer and an illustrator. I greatly enjoy the brainstorming part of the design process as well as transferring those ideas from the initial sketches onto the screen. I’m comfortable with using Adobe programs such as InDesign , Illustrator, and Photoshop and I find them helpful during my creative process.

 Back in Thomas Edison high school , I was studying Computer Information Technology and was focusing on becoming either an IT Specialist or a Computer Engineer. However, I soon realized that Information Technology wasn’t the path I wanted to take as it was too technical and less creative field for me. I wasn’t happy with my decision. After graduating from high school, I decided to pursue my dream of becoming a communication design professional. During my first two years in City Tech, I started seeing huge improvements in my drawing and illustration skills.  I also started to gain more hands-on experience with working in Adobe programs and communicating my ideas with peers.

 In the years to come, I look forward to deepening my knowledge and skills in illustration, design principles and visual communications.
