Initially plotting an undergraduate course towards the then robust magazine industry, in 1999 I shifted focus to the digital realm, earning a certificate in computer graphics along with my BA.

Along with absorbing a healthy dose of writing and humanities, I also gained proficiency in web and print design, digital video, photography, and animation techniques through various design and production classes.

I continued my educational relationship with Seton Hall in 2004 by participating in their United Nations Intensive Summer Study Program.
