/About me

/bio

Born in USA, 1990 (Chicago Illinois )
2009-current Studying Web graphic and design / Web game design at DeVry University, Chicago Illinois​

A female at the age of 24 and living in Chicago. I've been drawing for more than 11 years thus far. I first started learning to draw when I was in 5th grade during a visit with my Uncle I watched him draw pictures for my sisters, mother, and grandmother who were with me at the time during our visit. Watching the beautiful work he created inspired me to draw as well to be able to create something as beautiful as he did. since then i went from tracing my dolls to being able to draw pictures from off the top of my head. As I began to get better so did my uncle as he sent a birthday card to me and my sisters as well as my aunts and brother and grandmother that he created himself.
​
Looking at how much he improved inspired me to continue on with drawing. soon later in high school in my senior year. I began working with digital art as well as improving my skills in traditional work as well. Feeling confident I sent my uncle one of the picture's i've drawn that had been placed in my high school's art gallery. till this day the reply he sent me has kept me going and continues to inspire me to work even harder at drawing in hopes to become a Web game designer or a video game designer and or an Animator to be able to see my work in a way come to life while improving my skills to one day be as good as him.

 

2014 - Current: Recently just finished my Bachelors Degree in Multimedia & Design at DeVry University in Chicago.
