“I loved and miss you and your class. As a Graphic Designer, it made me pay even more attention to detail. The way we learned about how each style developed inspired me to think outside the box and not be afraid to create designs that aren't ‘trending.’ Anyone who takes this class will learn a lot and become more aware. You are an awesome professor, and I'm glad I was able to have the chance to be taught by you.”
