Hi there, I'm Shalaine Blazic and I teach digital media at Anderson County High School. It's been such a thrill to share my experience from 20 years in the graphic design and photography industry with the up-and-coming generation of professionals. I feel incredibly lucky to be able to help inspire and guide these young minds towards their own creative and professional success.
