About Liz

Thank you for taking the time to visit my online portfolio. I am an undergraduate design student pursuing my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Interactive Design and New Media at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, California. The work on this site summarizes my first few years of academic design work.

A solution is only as good as the interpretation of a problem. Only after immersing yourself and truly gaining sympathy for a cause can a purposeful resolution arise. After I finish my formal studies, I would like to continue to bridge the gap between people and technology through thoughtful design.
