PROGRESS

At the present moment I'm in the process of talking to a few people in the hopes that they will consider giving me their guidance in this process. I am looking for two advisors. One for the design aspect of the project and another for the content/science aspect of the project.

PROJECT

I posted a short Project Summary for a fast overview of the project. For a deeper look, here is also Project Description.

MY BACKGROUND

I went to International Higher School of Practical Psychology in Latvia for my undergraduate degree and I studied Digital Design. While there, I became inspired and passionate about design, wanting to continue to go further on this path. Right after finishing I put together a portfolio and applied to the Academy of Art University for a MFA in Graphic Design. I moved out to San Francisco about two years ago and since then have been taking classes at the Academy, working, and last Summer interning at a Global creative and brand-engineering agency ATTIK. It's been an eye-opening and inspirational journey so far and presently I am at a point where I can start working on my Thesis project.
