Some time ago I graduated from UNC Greensboro with a BFA in art education. My very last semester in school I realized teaching was not for me. Ever since then I have had various retail jobs, administrative assistant jobs, and I even owned my own jewelry design business for a while. Nothing ever felt quite right as far as a career path is concerned. I finally decided to bite the bullet and go back to school to study graphic design. I felt the Art Institute of Raleigh-Durham was my best choice, and I hope the examples in my portfolio emphasize what a great education I’ve  received. I believe I’ve finally found my niche. I know they say, “Third time’s the charm,” but in my case I really believe its the second time.
