Alaina Designs

I find inspirations from other design blogs, I closely follow Smashing Magazine Blog and How Design, Print Magazine Blog, and many more. I also love looking at advertisements in different magazines, I have posters of artistic and inspirations things all over house and keep all of my design books and acquire new ones whenever possible to have around.

I chose to go into graphic design and web design because I found that it came easily to me in high school. I got involved with web design in 8th grade at my junior high school and studied it into high school and decided that I loved design, whether it be print or web. Lucie Delebruere is my inspiration, she was the one to introduce me to technology and design in high school.

My networking connections have been my most valuable asset in building my career thus far. I’ve gotten every job I’ve ever had because I had a connection to it. I heard about my current job through my teacher who had talked to the human resources manager at Tender Corp. Networking and having connections mean a great deal, and I’m starting to realize that now more then ever.
