Starting as early as five, I have felt a profound connection to the art world. Growing up in Westchester, New York, frequent visits to art galleries solidified my desire to become an artist. I began my art journey with drawing and crafting with any materials I could find, driven not by innate talent, but by a deep passion for creativity. While I faced academic challenges during middle and high school, art became a motivating force that helped me persevere. Through creative expression, I found inspiration, and today, I proudly maintain a GPA of 4.06. In my senior year of high school, AP Art and Studio classes allowed me to explore more open-minded ideas, guiding me toward a college career in the arts. During a design elective at Westchester Community College, I discovered my passion for graphic design, which led to a particular love for typography. These experiences have shaped not only my skills but my vision as an artist and designer, propelling me toward a creative future.
