The Creative And Powerful Mireya

Hi World Wide Web. This week we interviewed Mireya. She went to college at the amazing Art Center College Of Design. Her career is a graphic designer. Her degree is in Bachelors Of Fine Arts. At first she wanted to become a lawyer. She really thought about it and went back to school to become a graphic designer. She owned her own bussiness called Phi Design that makes a lot of fantasic logos. Because she owns her own business she has two parts business and design. She work in her apartment so she does not have to rent a building to do work in Brooklyn, New York. She said that when you write on paper it takes you to another world because you can express your feelings. She said that we have different interests. She helps people make logos for people's website. I love this interview, because she show passion in what she was saying. I will be the first to admit that she is the most creative person that have met and interviewed. She showed us her sketchbook with her work. When she give her clients their logos she wants to hear honest feedback. She don't want them to give happy feedback it if really not good. And someday I might change my career and become a graphic designer and be just like Mireya. There is no doubt that I will never forget this interview.
