After getting my MA in graphic design, I want to teach a course at George Mason or community college on professional web design and development. I have a passion for teaching and sharing what I know. For my professional career, I want to establish my personal brand. I want to move away from client services. I want to create my own digital products. I don’t know what they are yet. I’ll put more thoughts into them after I am done with school.
