FIDM looks like a very cool school though -- what an incredible place to spend 4 years. (on a side note, my H decorated his graduation cap with a huge gear for, you know, being an engineering major . . . nerd alert)Winniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08102087490031989152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-750137054841847.post-37798155976554627712012-03-15T15:27:56.017-07:002012-03-15T15:27:56.017-07:00kirkette is.

He worked for a number of years in various companies before going back to college. He got better jobs after that and some acclaim (Google Phong Hong), but it's still a really tough business. Totally different environment for designers vs. marketers though.<br /><br />If she doesn't get into FIDM, I remember Mt. SAC had some fashion merchandising classes a while back. I'm not if it still does, or if there's a whole program, but something to look into.Wandering Chopstickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04703018765718062460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-750137054841847.post-90444056570842843562012-03-15T10:37:46.002-07:002012-03-15T10:37:46.002-07:00She should check out DesignLoveFest.com. This girl...She should check out DesignLoveFest.com. This girl, Bri, is so inspiring and full of advice. She's a FIDM alum and works as a freelance graphic designer. She's been able to build her business and it has lead to wonderful things for her (Rue Magazine, BlogShop and a collab with GAP).<br /><br />She's even got me re-thinking my career path....the way I see it, it's never too late.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03066329584148618733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-750137054841847.post-60806061828396856862012-03-15T09:27:27.641-07:002012-03-15T09:27:27.641-07:00FIDM is a great school!
