Year of Graduation: 2015

Brief Biographical Sketch:

This is my last semester here at Princeton, and I thought it would be cool to share some of the stuff I've learned here with people who have yet to experience college. Though I am a computer science major, through my clubs and classes, I have gained extensive experience in graphic design.

I was the lead designer for a student-run science magazine for 3.5 years, have had a part-time job through the Student Design Agency making professional quality posters for groups on campus for 3 years, and have designed/created a bunch of apps and websites for hackathons and school projects.

This course will focus on the theoretical foundation that forms the backbone of all types of design, be it web design, print design, etc. In other words, if you learn these fundamentals well, you can make pretty much everything look good.
