About

Hello, welcome to the wonderful world of……well just a bit of everything. I guess i should introduce myself, I’m Winnie, nice to meet you! Well i suppose i should give you a little background info at the moment i’ve completed my second year of uni, studying graphic design or Design for Visual Communication to be precise at the University of Ulster in Belfast (York Street). Currently i’m taking a gap year to intern at different agencies to gain industry experience and hopefully a bit of travelling as well (Berlin in Nov for a week, and Hong Kong in January for 3 months, fingers crossed.) I come from an art background like many others having done it for GCSE, A-Level, Art Foundation and now a design degreee. My interests lie in graphic design (obviously), photography, illustration and anime basically just anything random, cute, unusual and quirky. (Yes i’m a big fan of Hello kitty before you ask). =^-^=

The purpose of this blog? Well apparently it’s part of my grade in uni and i have to keep it for the full threeish years i’ll be there. How much of it’s true? I don’t really know and does it definitely count? I don’t know, but i started in summer 2009 and i think i’ve kept up quite well with it, since i enjoy finding wee things to show you guys. It’s quite fun. ^__^ The content of the blog will be a reflection of myself, any little brainwaves that i have anything i find remotely interesting even if it’s a ketchup wrapper or toilet paper i’ll post. Yes quite random, (expect that >_<) but you can also expect to find a showcase of my work both from uni and my personal adventures.

Now…what else to write about? Think i’ve covered the basics but if you’ve got any questions please don’t hesitate to drop me a email at hello@winnieshek.com or follow me on twitter @winnieshek. You can also download my resume here, but for my work please visit the portfolio section of the site. It was nice to meet you and i hope you enjoy my posts even though i probably ramble on a bit. Lol Well that’s me, visit again soon.

Wini [^.^]
