Instructor – Miranda Whitley

My name is Miranda Whitley, and I am a graphic designer with a passion for teaching. I was introduced to graphic design 10 years ago using the very same curriculum I will be teaching to you in these classes. Since then I have taken every opportunity to expand my knowledge of graphic design as technology evolves. My specialty in graphic design is logo design, packaging design, and website creation.

I am very excited to offer these classes to you so that I can share my love for graphic design and hopefully inspire some of you to pursue it as well.
