About me

I studied for my Bachelor's Art Degree with Honours in 3D Digital Design & Animation at the University of Greenwich for three years. My course encompassed a range of disciplines, including Architecture, Computing & Programming & Media-Multimedia Studies, alongside Art, Graphics and 3D-based courses. This allowed me to develop many skills and gain experience in using applications on Mac computers, such as Photoshop and Logic Pro, giving me an insight to what I would be selling in your shop. My dissertation was based on exploring the use of avatars and the psychological consequences of having them, which gave me an understanding of how and why people use technology for leisure and creativity. At University I specialised in Concept Art & Illustration, and thus am able to sell the performance and utility of your products from experience, or even demonstrate it in the shop.
