<p>My undergrad degree was a B.F.A. in Graphic Design. Having graduated during a recession, I was not able to find a job in this field. Since I got my degree from a well-known university (not an art school), I was able to go to law school, and I have worked as a lawyer for over 20 years now. But my graphic design classes (not my law school classes) helped me develop my critical thinking skills that have been the most useful to me as a lawyer.</p>
