CALIFORNIA COLLEGE OF THE ARTS

Alvina Ng is a senior in Graphic Design at the California College of the Arts. She was born in Los Angeles and raised in Hong Kong. She remembers when she first moved to the states at the age of 18, everything was legal back at home but suddenly everything is underage. Alvina loves challenges and is not afraid to fail. She works conceptually and experimentally with visual communication in different media. She currently works as an in-house, award-winning designer at CCA’s Sputnik Studio. Last summer she interned at BBDO Asia working directly with some of the agency’s main clients, including VISA, FedEx, and MetLife Insurance. She works hard and plays harder. Last summer she used 25 days to travel to 13 European cities. She believes traveling is the only thing she buys that makes her richer.
