About
My name is Wing Na Wong and my major is Graphic Design. I decided at the age of twelve that I wanted to be an artist. Drawing, painting and digital arts have always been a passionate focus. I loved the fusion of practical projects with the creative process. For the last ten years, I had been working frequently with Photoshop. And I had also learned Illustrator, AutoCAD, Indesign, Lightwave, HTML, Visual Basic and JavaScript along the way. Now I able to design produce and manage projects including books, brochures, posters, and websites.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
Getting a degree in Graphic Design and becoming a graphic designer has been my personal goal. I finally decided what I wanted to do with my life, and knowing that I will be rewarded for something that I’m passionate to do is the best feeling I could ever experience. Education to me is extremely important especially through the times we are all going through. It will enable so many more doors to be opened once I graduate from the university. Most of our knowledge is acquired from on the job experience, but university is the true foundation. And without that education, my job would not be within reach. I want to share my knowledge and success with others later on that would like to do just the same.
- Graduate school interests
I’m planning to graduate with a bachelor degree of graphic design in Western University. I can see myself working for a company who needs someone like me to create a logo, maintain a business website, and advertise what they are all about. To do reach my goal, my intention is to manage my time in school to fully understand what I am studying, get involved with other art students to discover even more of my talent, and possibly intern with a company to get used to working hands-on with potential clients.
- Outside the classroom
I love photography, to draw, to paint and digital arts.
