Well let's see... I graduated from NYU w/ a BA in French Language and International Politics. Because of the French, I became an account executive in the fashion industry. Being a corporate yuppie didn't really sit well with me after awhile. So I switched careers and retrained as a Graphic Designer/Art Director building up my print portfolio (I wanted to pay attention to my creative side).
Now in my 30s, I want to evolve into something more progressive along the lines of new media (i.e. interaction, web and motion). I've handled huge accounts, dealt with "captain of industry" types, and managed a staff. At this point, I want to focus on me and what I truly want to become professionally. I'm a lot more mature and honest with myself this time around. And I think I have more to offer artistically and intellectually than I had in the past.

What I understood from this… Was the interaction people have with space, which was pretty interesting to read. The prime example featured is the Plaza. And Plaza by definition is “A public square, marketplace, or similar open space in a built-up area.” This was invented as such since the greco-roman era as a place where …

A very interesting read on how things are approached in order to receive accurate data. I was impressed by what they’ve done, in terms of process. By not building an intrusive package and in it materials that didn’t seem daunting to that particular receiver. I really liked this comment: “Instead of designing solutions for user, …

This is more of a personal use. I’d like to use M&Ms to gauge how much time I’m spending on which project per class. Each color would represent the class and its project and one M&M would be one hour. They will be filled inside glass jars to which I will be documenting via photo …

But we hear about it nonetheless more often now that before. With the emergence of technology and social networking, bullying— so it seems, has reached a …
