I'M JEAN-CÉDRIC (￣﹃￣ )
Jean-Cédric holds a Master of Fine Arts in Visual Communication from East Texas A&M University and a Bachelor of Arts in Graphic Design from the University of the District of Columbia. Originally from Côte d'Ivoire, West Africa, and now based in Dallas, Texas, he combines his passion for innovative design with a global perspective.
In addition to teaching, he works as a Creative Director, bringing his unique vision to various projects. His portfolio includes published children's books, for which he has crafted designs and illustrations for clients. Driven by a commitment to creativity and a desire to make a meaningful impact, Jean-Cédric uses art and design as tools for self-expression and storytelling, consistently pushing the boundaries of visual communication.
My fascination with graphic design took root during my early years in Côte d'Ivoire, West Africa, the place I proudly call my birthplace. Confronted with scarce resources, my unwavering determination enabled me to hone distinctive skills and grasp the essential principles of design. In 2015, I embarked on a new chapter in the United States, where I swiftly immersed myself in learning Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. This self-taught journey marked the beginning of my enduring passion for design and the unfolding of my professional history.
