Hello Everyone. My name is David Velasquez. Iām a Student and a Mentor at New York City College of Technology. I have been majoring in Communication Design for 4 Years. The Career I wanted to do is illustration, whether itās digital or pencil/ink or both since I like to do drawing and computer art. For example, doing sketches on paper and transforming it as a graphic on a computer. My goal was to showcase what I can do based on my techniques and my skills that I have and how this major can help me reach to the next level when it comes to improving or making my designs more better in order for me to understand the concept of designing and how would that lead to a future design job opportunity down the road.
