COMMENTS & FEEDBACK
“Dwight is super energetic and passionate about his work. He explains and does walkthrus of assignments and projects in class, so skipping this is not a good idea if you're not familiar with the design programs already. Sometimes he goes off topic, but only because he's so excited to see what people are working on. He's super open to questions.”
“He's an amazing professor that made the course enjoyable and educational at the same time (something very needed in the creative industries program)! 100% recommend taking him if you ever have the chance”
