WHO IS SOPHIE?

I was born in Taipei, Taiwan and I'm a daughter of a diplomat. I started travelling around the world with my family before I even turned a year old. I've lived in Bahrain, Turkey, and Thailand for most of my life, learning about distinct cultures, histories, and meeting many friends from all kinds of different backgrounds.

I've always had a passion for all things related to art. It was my favorite subject in school. I was introduced to Photoshop in high school and that's where it all started. I was designing event tickets, advertisements, brochures, and newsletters for the teachers in school and I loved it. It even won me a scholarship because I was so active in school. When it was time to graduate, I decided to study and become a graphic designer. If I like designing so much, why not make a career out of doing something I love?

I went to CSU Sacramento and graduated in December 2007. It was a wild roller coaster ride of late night design sessions fueled by fast food and energy drinks, but I got through it! Right now I primarily work freelance, but that doesn't stop me from persuing the next step in my life.
