Second Year student

I started my career as a Designer 9 years ago. Even though I have gathered so much knowledge from Google and YouTube, with the time I felt that it is really important for me to do some professional study on this as it is important to have that proper knowledge and certification for the growth of my career.

I always wanted to work in the Creative industry even though I had no idea about it. But it wasn’t a problem for me since AMDT has an amazing set of lecturers and they taught everything to me from scratch.
