鈥淚 heard good things about the College from my art teacher in high school,鈥� he said. 鈥淚 knew the rigorous curriculum would be a true test of my abilities. What it revealed was a work ethic and set of design and communications skills I did not at first realize I had! It definitely fostered creative development and an 鈥業 can do this!鈥� attitude which still carries me through the ever changing and challenging field of lighting design.鈥�
