LQAF Visual Arts Scholar Nikkohl Santa Maria has always been interested in art and technology.  “My interest in graphic designing took off when I became the Layout and Design Editor for both the yearbook and newspaper staff for all four years of high school,” shares Nikkohl.  With the help of a LQAF scholarship, she pursued her art at California State University, Long Beach, earning a B.A. in Graphic Design.  For over two years now, she has worked as a freelance graphic designer, completing a wide range of projects for website, print and social media.
