  • "I love Graphic Design as a whole. There is nothing more satisfying than having a contract come at you with some creative and clever though required to execute. Working closely with clients that like what you do is always a plus, too. Occasionally you get customers who really want something that looks bad or like it was created in MS Word and those can come more often than the creative jobs, but when the creative jobs do come in it is very rewarding! You have to have a passion for design."

  • "I love doing art and design, and being a graphic designer is not a just hobby but a job that requires constant problem solving. When there is a final design solution, I feel a great sense of success. Although, there are definitely times that I hate doing this job due to numerous revisions and some ridiculous requirement I have to follow. There are times when I feel that the initial draft looks better than the final design, but my input is totally irrelevant if the customer/boss likes it."
