I’ve been drawing for as long as I can remember, and making things has always felt natural to me; it’s how I relax, think, and understand the world around me. I always imagined art would be part of my future, and the BFA Graphic Design program gave me a middle ground between passion and practicality. It showed me that creativity can be useful—helping organize information, tell stories, and connect with people clearly. Through the program, I’ve grown not just as an artist but as a designer, gaining skills, confidence, and a clearer sense of direction. However, my work is an extension of who I am—all over the place. Creating isn’t just something I do, but it’s also how I process my thoughts and express who I am.
