TYLER SCHOOL OF ART AND ARCHITECTURE
Hi! I’m Cameron, a fourth-year graphic and interactive design student at Temple University’s Tyler School of Art & Architecture in Philadelphia. I am a passionate creative who loves to solve problems through intentional design, discover new knowledge and skills, and make things beautiful! My design passions are brand identity, layout, typography, and color, but exploration and adventure are what I’m all about. Whether it’s creating art, traveling to new places, reading a great book, or finding an interesting hobby– I love to learn about the world and everything in it!
WHO IS ONE PERSON YOU LOOK UP TO IN YOUR FIELD? EITHER TODAY OR HISTORICALLY?
Sean McCabe, a professor of mine, is someone who inspires me to be genuine, passionate, and experimental with my work– I look up to his unrelenting curiosity and commitment to learning, educating, and creating.
WHAT ARE YOU READING, LISTENING TO, WATCHING?
My favorite musical artists right now are Kendrick Lamar, Tyler, The Creator, Doechii, Nada Surf, and Lorde! I also love reading anything from historical fiction to thrillers to biographies.
DO YOU DESIGN FOR ANY CAUSES OR CHARITIES, I.E., DESIGN FOR GOOD?
While I haven’t had the chance yet, I certainly plan to use design as a tool to advocate for the causes and movements that I so fiercely care about, such as environmental activism and civil and women’s rights.
DO YOU FEEL THAT DESIGN SCHOOL HAS PREPARED YOU TO FIND A JOB?
Yes! Tyler has given me the technical skills, visual literacy, and a variety of resources that have prepared me to be a successful designer after graduation. Being able to adapt to new situations and manage several projects at a time has positioned me well to achieve my goals.
