Hello everyone! I recently joined the Graphic Design Forum and may as well paste my intro here also.

My name is Alissa and I'm just starting to explore the wonderful world of graphic design. I began school this September at a small business school and after getting my feet wet, thought it would be a good idea to join a forum or two. I looked around at a few and thought Photoshop Gurus seemed nice and seemed friendly.

I'm 23 and I've wanted to go into the graphic design field for several years, but I suffer from health problems which have been very prohibitive. I finally took the plunge after a six-year hiatus from high school, and though it has been a struggle, I absolutely love learning and being with other like-minded people. I've never had any formal art training but have a decent creative gene and good business sense. I've dabbled in Photoshop a bit but really don't know anything in detail....I've given myself a crash course with a "Dummies" book but my actual Photoshop classes begin this semester.

At home I enjoy creative writing, photography, and spending time with my kitty cat.

I look forward to being part of a community which will help me grow as an artist and designer!
