Personal Statement

I've been a multimedia art and design tutor on Wyzant since 2014 and I love it!

Located in North Carolina, I graduated high school in 2004 (Summa Cum Laude) and went to college at Appalachian State University (Music Industry Studies). After two years at ASU, I realized music industry wasn't for me, so I took a break from school until 2008. I transferred to East Carolina University's School of Art and Design and graduated December 2014 (BFA in Animation & Interactive Design).

I am working on a book and ran into some barriers caused by obscure InDesign bugs. Adrian was very patient, and was able to help me pin down what was happening, plus worked with me to optimize my work flow so I could move faster. After our most recent session Adrian continued working on my project and posted a template file that solved my problem. Highly recommended.

Adrian was great! I was brand new to In Design and he taught me the basics in one class! I would recommend his for sure. He was by far the best tutor I have had on this site.
- Renee T. from Yarmouth, ME
He not only answered all of the questions that I had for my school project but also provided me useful information and efficient technic to accomplish my project. He made my school life much easier and saved me tremendous time. I will definitely continue to take his tutoring session from now and forward. Thank you very much!

Just had my first session with Adrian. He is a super patient tutor, worked at my speed yet we accomplished a lot. His explanations were very clear and I learned a significant amount in the time we had. I definitely plan to use Adrian again very soon. Thanks, Adrian!!
- REBECCA C. from Redwood City, CA
Adrian was very knowledgeable and able to answer all of my questions. He reviewed all I asked to work on and went more in depth on topics which he thought would improve me ability on indesign. Great lesson!
- Damon M. from Allston, MA
Adrian is amazing and helping me get through my multiple graphic design courses. He is extremely knowledgeable, patient, proficient, and helpful. I would highly recommend to anyone!
- Casey C. from Terryville, CT
Taught me some easy short cuts and features I didn't know existed. He was easy to follow and very friendly. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing help with Adobe Illustrator.
- Martin B. from Lafayette, LA
I just had my first session with Adrian and I can't say enough good things about the extent of his knowledge as well as his patient, kind manner. He was expeditious in getting things accomplished without ever making me feel rushed. He was completely comfortable with everything I threw at him, and expertly led me through the system. I will use him again, without a doubt! Thank you, Adrian.

We had to work around fire-wall issues my organization has and ended up talking on the phone and e-mailing through the training session. I was impressed with Adrian's ability to educate me without being able to see in real-time what I was seeing. I learned a lot in my first lesson and look forward to my next!
- Lisa B. from Friday Harbor, WA
Excited for more lessons! Adrian is a great teacher and is able to tailor lessons to preference which is great.
- Trevor N. from Mohegan Lake, NY
Adrian guided me through a complex Photoshop CC issue I got stuck on. I'm really glad that Adrian listened to my needs and showed how to apply the steps myself. Adrian was extremely professional, helpful, knowledgable and I was delighted to receive follow-up videos and notes that were carefully organized and outlined step- by-step. I plan on booking with Adrian again in the future for my Photoshop needs and recommend anybody do so without hesitating. The best thing is that Adrian is actually talented and skilled with an outstanding portfolio as proof.
- Nadia L. from Seattle, WA
I was given a Glowforge Laser Etching machine after getting my MFA in Metal Design. Yes, you would think this was a wonderful gift...BUT- it is NOTHING like the industrial Epilog I was used to. Adrian has been helping me adjust to some technology that is very complicated and requires completely different Ai files and a whole new skill set in Photoshop! I couldn't do this without Adrian's help!
- Barbara M. from Greenville, NC
I had never worked in In Design before and I had a project I needed to work on. Adrian tailored the lesson to my project was able to show me shortcuts and specific tools to help me get the project done. He was extremely helpful!
- Jacqueline S. from Raleigh, NC
I really can't say enough great things about Adrian. He's a cut above the rest. Not only is he extremely talented at Designing in all the subjects he has tutored me in (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects) He has the most effective/creative way of teaching I have ever come across in all my years and years as a student. He couldn't be nicer, patient, generous, caring, and reassuring. He has been very adaptive to my learning style...He never raises an impatient tone if you need something repeated and he always keeps the lesson highly engaging and fun. He is also really resourceful and has a lot of great links to sites he has shared with me that have been very helpful references. Overall, I leave the lessons feeling more confident and with many more tools in my pocket & skills gained. If you leave a lesson still feeling discouraged that's a problem with the tutor, which I have experienced. With Adrian, I always leave encouraged and that's why he's my go to...You're the best!!!

Adrian tutored my son in Illustrator, he is very knowledgeable about the program and taught my son a lot on how to shortcut and create the effects he wanted to add to his class project. Thank you, Adrian, for the great lesson you provided him.
- Denisse H. from Miami, FL
I had very little knowledge about Illustrator, but I had a very specific task that I needed to accomplish, understand and document for my job. Adrian first demonstrated via screen sharing each step required very clearly, then I demonstrated via screen sharing that I learned what he taught me. After the lesson, he sent detailed notes on everything we discussed and also provided a video that showed again the steps we covered during the lesson. Adrian was knowledgeable and very easy to understand - highly recommended!
- Tony O. from Dover, DE
I'm so pleased that i have him as my tutor. I just had my 1st lesson the other day and i just cant say enough good things about him. He's an expert in PS but even better, he can explain it to me so i understand how to do it. He shows me the big picture so I have a frame of reference, and then all the little steps that so many others leave out. Im looking forward to our next lesson in a few days.

Serena is enjoying learning Japanese with Adrian. We feel fortunate for WyzAnt for connecting us with Adrian. He engages a student so that they are motivated to learn.
