Sam Thompson

Front-end developer, PAN media and advertising, Hamilton

Sam has always been interested in both the creative and computing sides of design, which is why he chose to complete his Bachelor of Computer Graphic Design (BCGD) at the University of Waikato.

During his degree, Sam learned fundamental design principles that set him up for a successful career in design, and he was also able to master the art of coding which means he can now work on websites and other more technical aspects of design.

He enjoyed being able to work closely with lecturers and other students across a variety of different projects, and is now using all of these skills in his role as a front-end developer at PAN media and advertising.
