Short Bio

Welcome! My name is Michael Goh and I am glad that you've paid me a visit. I am an adjunct instructor of the Houston Community College since Spring 2005. I am an experienced Web and Graphic Designer, with practical experience from my web designing business and creative, artistic expertise through my Major in Advertising Design at the Fashion Institute of Technology, a State University of New York, Cum Laude. I also, have a Certificate of Web Production from Houston Community College Systems.

I mostly enjoy the arts, and museum, cultural events, artistic performances, good architecture, lighthouses and wherever there is a crowd such as the Houston International Festival. I always see change as a challenge and believe that everything works for the good of all. I have lived in Houston since 1994, and also see this city's growth and changes as a good, exciting and a great palette for creative designs.

I have been described as a tough, thorough, comprehensive but also helpful instructor. I currently teach the course in PhotoShop at the Southwest campus. From my students, I expect professionalism, attention to detail and creative thinking. I challenge my students to strife for the best and work to bring the best out of them.  My goal as an instructor is to impart my experience and knowledge to students and assist them to translate their class learning to the real word. I work to prepare my class for both the print and the web.

Students will experience an intensive class environment and be challenged to accomplish their work in an artistic and professional manner.  If design is not one of your major or required courses, your experience in the class may help you see things in a different way.
