2. Chris Weaver was born in Pennsylvania in the United States. While
growing up outside Washington, D.C., Chris always took art classes in
a variety of disciplines, until he settled on Graphic Design, particularly
Photoshop and Illustrator. He went to university for Graphic Design
before moving to London and switching his degree to Art, Design and
Media. Graphics remain his focus and passion. Chris recently interned
at a financial advisor company, designing all of their reports and
articles. He created infographics and was in charge of their layout,
even creating their 72-page Enterprise Investment Scheme Report.
He may be more at home at a computer than an easel, but he likes
to think being good at one helps him to be better at the other.
