Bio
Sarah Israr
Umar's creativity knows no bounds, a fact of his skill-set that he demonstrated while working as the Lead Graphic designer at TEDxUofTMississauga. Give him a concept, and he'll turn it into art through his mastery of digital manipulation on a variety of programs and editing tools. He designed displays, exhibits, promotional items as well as banners for the event, which worked to excite those attending and draw others in. It wasn't easy doing the design for the project, especially because of the deadlines and time restraints we were working under but not only did Umar never miss a deadline but always brought his work forward before the due date. Brilliant artist, and digital specialist.
