Interactive / Graphic Designer for Nemo
Alumnus: John-Paul DeVries
Position: Interactive & Graphic Designer
Employer: Nemo Design
I'm an interactive developer at Nemo Design. I work on websites for companies such as Nike, HP, Voodoo PC, and Smith Optics. We program flash-based sites using Object Oriented ActionScript. I also work with JavaScript, XHTML, CSS, and sometimes even Server Side development like PHP. In short, I take a Photoshop comp from the designers, and turn it into a fully interactive website.
Remember that what you get out of your education is what you put into it. Never let anyone else define your capabilities as a professional or a human being. You define your own limitations and boundaries to success; if you don't see any then there are none.
