My name is Mayra Salcido and I'm from Oakland, California. After living in California for twelve great years, I moved to Texas which I spent five years living there. Living in two completely different states has definitely made me fully appreciate my surroundings, but most importantly it has made me more of an open minded person. I'm usually trying to try new things in order to expand my horizons. I love visiting new places and learning new things. As I start this seminar, I'm excited to learn the different aspects of design and the intricate phases products undergo in reaching the ideal design.
