30 sec questions
- I would probably continue going to school, I actually like learning.
- Music production which includes recording and beat making.
- Probably my upbringing, not just my ethnic background as a Hispanic but more so my experiences growing up.
- I am always reading about technology I try to stay above of the average understanding of technology.
- That's a long list but the first on the list is probably computer engineering.
- Well obvious is hunger and basic healthcare.
- Once again basic healthcare, as a superpower there should be no reason what a citizen should have to deny themselves healthcare because of financial reasons.
- I'm not to familiar with KC but from what I have experienced I would say all the city needs is to continue investing in the youth it seems to be working quite well.
- ...parking.. Google fiber.... possibly a bit more security.
- Money. I come from a severely low income family and I am struggling to get the education I believe I deserve regardless of it being way out my financial reach.
- Probably my father to me he represents the working class individuals who believe in the American dream.
- the ever growing Hispanic community, Crate-digging community, and the community of tip dependent workers?
- Hispanic communities still face an unacceptable amount of discrimination. The rise of digital music is making records rarer and harder to find. Tipped wages are set too low even with tips it's impossible to make a living a living wage.
- Youth educators and modern day urban nomads.
- That's another long list but I'd say historic artwork inspires a lot of my work
- Web design has been something I always come back to.
- Well I'd have to say Folly Theater was the most memorable, it was first crit with guest that I had at kcai as a transfer, so I was extremely nervous but it went great which sort of boosted My confidence and motivation to keep at it.
- Last semesters online collection exhibition was a big one for me I pushed my self a lot on that project.
- I like to tackle the research role a lot. Most client I work with are often surprised when I ask them questions even after they've briefed me.
- I like to break rules a lot so my work my not always be as "clean" but I do feel it's still successful.
- Branding has become a huge topic for me lately and it is definitely a side of design I want continue doing during my career.
- I'd say presentation of my work. I usually prefer to step back and let my work speak for itself it's both good and bad because if if I get my message across without having to explain then I did my job well but in the real world I will always have speak about my work.
- I think I'm still rusty on my typographic skills but I am feel I have improved a lot in the past year.
- That's tough to say but I think jumping straight to real world clients will help me the most.
- I came here with a focus on digital but I think I have started to appreciate print as well so possibly objects that span across all mediums.
Five-min Questions
- Well the obvious answer is online but in recent years with a boom in more younger individuals starting new businesses the demand for design is rising. They understand how important design is to a business. So I believe branding is going to grow a lot more especially in to small business network. The same applies for web design and UX. More and more businesses are realizing the need for an online presence so having a website for your business is going to be a necessary asset.
- I want to work with small businesses and communities in need doing anything and everything I can bring to the table. This is a decision I made as a teenager, I saw my father attempt to start his own carpentry company, it was something he was extremely good at . I was optimistic about it I remember making him business cards from a printable template and a small website (all designed terribly) but his company failed because he couldn't get enough clients to keep running. I always feel as if I knew what I know now I could have helped him have a successful business. From that experience I have always wanted to help the less fortunate. There are many people in low income communities who have great skill or talent but are never able to have the opportunity to put it to the best use. That's where I believe design can help, even if it only helps a bit. I could probably work for a firm that has big name client but to me that won't be as rewarding as helping the little guy.
