Your video just popped on my KZfaq so I decided to watch it and get some inspiration to create my own portfolio. More than that I just loved the way you communicate... you seem calm and humble. =) It was equally pleasant seeing your projects. You are organized and know exactly how to show your work. Thank you for it xox!

I'm a new graphic design student, so while I've been creating on my computer for many years, I'm still relatively new in the world of design and actually applying techniques that bring designs together. You're extremely inspiring, I hope one day I can present work that's even half as good as yours.

Hi Dena. I glad to find another female graphic designer to share tutorial and helpful tips like you on KZfaq, and also a Vietnamese, I'm so proud of you. As a graphic design student in Vietnam (because graphic design is a new major in Vietnam, so many of the universities in here don't have the proper knowledge of graphic design), I learn so many design skills and knowledges on KZfaq. Thank you for sharing this tips about portfolio and many helpful contents ❤️❤️❤️

Don't pursue graphic design. These people just selling themselves to make living. Just showing fancy stuff to lure students to watch their content. Reality is really opposite. You will die with frustration you will get in graphic design. There is no scope in near future. Rather go with UI UX. It's more customer centric rather than posting no sense design. Consider this option.
