As an avid artist from a very young age my dream has always been to work as a Graphic Designer much to my mum's disappointment as she had expectations of me becoming an Architect. Sorry mum. Thankfully I was given the opportunity under the tutorship of Gerry MacAuley at Ballymoney Technical College now the NRC. My first venture into Graphic Design was as part of my Media Studies course where my focus was on print design as opposed to most other students who focus on videography. It was at this point where I had my first opportunity to use an Apple Mac computer. Something that has played a major part in carving out the person I was to become. I will always be thankful to Gerry for the opportunity he gave me at the time as without his input I'm not sure what my future could have been. During my time at College I have remember working on my first designs using the now obsolete Aldus Pagemaker. Even at this early stage I was mesmerised with the how I was able to turn my ideas into reality using my monotone Mac. This was indeed the start of my journey.
