Career plan
My SWOT
Throughout my studies, I have identified areas were is need to continue to develop my skills. one of my main areas of improvement is learning how to use new software for graphic design, this is due to my limited experience in systems like adobe illustrator, photoshop, and after effects. Due to this I have found resources that will help me learn and adapt to these systems so I can advance my knowledge, I have found through repetition I have been able to slowly advance my skills in this area. However even though I have struggled through the new systems I have been able to show my creativity through more physical forms of design, like pencil and paper.
I am interested in a range of jobs within the creative sector. From marketing, product design or company design. I find joy within settings like these as it helps me be creative and be able to make an impact within the job I am in.
