Thanks a lot!

Starting from my childhood, I have always had a great love for expressing myself artistically. It was during high-school that I developed a keen interest to graphic design and typography. After taking a few classes, I knew I couldn't do anything else, but work in a field that I love and admire. Through out my design career I've been greatly influenced by my teachers, colleagues and the culture I am surrounded with. In addition I religiously follow design blogs and publications, where new ideas and topics are discussed along with the most up to date design trends. I was also lucky enough to be introduced to great designers during my studies in Art Center College of Design. One of them was Doyald Young, who have motivated and inspired me to look at type differently and explore logo design in a whole new way. Jan Tschichold, Paul Rand and Stefan Sagmeister have also been influential among many others. I often find myself looking back to their teachings in approaching a design problem and trying to solve it to the best of my abilities.
