Hi! I'm Sema, a passionate graphic designer currently pursuing my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design at Webster University. I love blending creativity with culture, which I've expressed through various projects like showcasing Turkish culture at GSA South’s Culture Day and designing for local exhibitions. I'm also deeply involved in the design community, managing finances for AIGA at Webster University and participating in events like STL Design Week. When I'm not studying or working on design projects, you might find me mentoring students or assisting in university labs. I enjoy creating logos, branding, and unique illustrations, always eager to learn more and bring fresh ideas to life.
