About Sulman

Hi there. My name is Sulman. Or you can call me Ess. Whatever your experience and background, I will push your creativity and help you expand your mindset so you can confidently take your Photoshop skills to the next level. As a professional, I take great pride in my attention to detail. I am results-driven, a creative problem-solver, and highly focused on delivering the best possible outcome every time. I value honesty, transparency and a respectable work ethic that demonstrates the desire for consistent self-improvement. As a person, I am laid back. I like positive people with good energy and a great sense of humor. I'm a big fan of 90s & early 2000s Hip Hop & Rock (Eminem, LinkinPark, 2pac, Kanye, Green Day, etc.). I also love my comedies and pizza. Looking forward to connecting with you.

  • 1) Can you tell us about your first experience with graphic design?

    It was in the fall of ’04, during my first year of undergrad. I took a class in Digital Media. Back then, I was not a morning person. It would take the jaws of life, and a shot of adrenaline combined with the growing fear of sleeping through an exam just to pry me out of bed. And so I hardly ever made it to the 8am lectures (on time). Fortunately, however, the workshops were in the afternoon. It was here I received my introduction to Photoshop CS, which would ultimately catapult me into the world of graphic design.

    I still remember my first project too. We had to create a poster with our own typography. Mine sucked!!
  • 2) Explain your expertise in graphic design, your interest in it, and more broadly, its importance in the world.

    While I cover a diverse range of design applications, my expertise primarily lies in Photo Editing/Manipulation and Design Psychology. And my fascination stems from digital storytelling. Possessing the ability to visually communicate any idea, message and mood is a true superpower. It transcends language barriers. Hence the expression, “A picture is worth a thousand words.”
  • 3) What is a mantra that you apply to your work?

    The message matters more than the art itself. So first start with your message in mind.
  • 4) What would you say to a new student using Photoshop (or another graphic design software) saying, “Photoshop is too complicated”?

    I would agree with them. Because it is complicated lol. But that’s also why I’m here - to simplify their process :)
  • 5) What are your other passions, related or non-related to graphic design?

    Aside from graphic design, I have a passion to rhyme
    I like to write & record music to recapture the times
    I also like to play tennis, and watch comedies too
    Travel to places like Venice, and visit Honolulu
    Plus, when I’m in the mood, you’ll find me coding all night
    While holding a slice of Pizza Margherita and reloading on Sprite
    Still, the best part of my week is with family & friends
    So I look forward to meeting you when our classes begin
  • 6) What makes you a Superprof?

    My students! They inspire me daily. Their wins are my wins. And their support & trust in my mission (to design with purpose and educate with impact) is why I’m lucky enough to enjoy the luxury of being a Superprof.
