Diploma of Graphic Design

With a love of design and creativity, Odin fast-tracked his education to gain qualifications to move into a career in graphic design sooner than a traditional education path would allow.

After completing a Certificate III in Multimedia in Year 10, Odin went on to complete a fulltime Diploma in Graphic Design at TAFE Queensland, rather than continue to Year 11.

To be accepted to study the course at such a young age, Odin was interviewed to assess his ability to study among peers who were in their 20s.

He graduated at the top of the 2017 class.

Odin then won the City of Gold Coast What the Gold Coast Means to Me artwork competition, with a computer-generated artwork which is now a 6m mural which has been installed at the Broadwater, Southport.

Odin was accepted to study a double-degree at Griffith University (Business and Design) at the age of 16.

His ultimate goal is to design for Lego.
