Author Information

"I liked arts and crafts from a very young age, but there was never any understanding or conversations about how that talent or interest can become a career some day. I was that one kid in class that could always draw. I remember drawing pen tattoos on the hands and arms of my classmates in secondary school, my artwork was the cover of my graduation year book, and I also created hand-drawn posters for concerts on campus in college. During my final semester in college, while studying computer science, I saw a t-shirt on campus with ""Graphics designed by..."" printed on the back just below the collar with the designer's name. That simple moment was when I made the connection that people get paid to design things. That set me on my journey to pursue design. Not being able to find any programs of study related to design at the time in the Caribbean, I moved to New York. Ron is a creative professional originally from the island of Barbados.
