Amor and Keisuke began their design career in the Graphic Design program at City College and used that foundation to obtain full ride scholarships to the Art Center. While attending the Art Center, they had the opportunity to work on some very impressive projects that allowed them to further their creative and critical thinking skills more than they ever imagined. Through their own tenacity and ability to act on advantageous opportunities, they were among the first students to go on an international internship program with the Art Center in Germany, were recruited as undergraduate students to be apart of a graduate research project for the inventors of the Snapchat face recognition technology, and also were able to live in Europe for a year and a half working on various design projects for such organizations such as Volkswagon and MetaDesign.
Amor and Keisuke demonstrate what can be achieved if you have a passion for what you are doing, a focused work ethic, a desire to learn everyday and push yourself as far as you can, in addition to creating and finding opportunities and acting on them. They also exemplify the importance of having a solid foundation when embarking on a challenging design career, which they believe the program at City College gave them.
