RESUME

Anchor 1

      I am currently studying animation at John Paul the Great Catholic University in Escondido, California. I have been a children’s illustrator for four years and wish to pursue my talent as an artist to the film industry. All my life I have been an artist and it is what I live for. My art isn’t merely a drawing on a page but rather a way of conveying a message to my audience and impacting them in a way like no other. I want to inspire them with a story. A story that they can look back on and never forget. In my art you will see that I am all about color, color is what I love and I feel that with color I can bring to life any drawing.

Fun Facts 

About Me! 

* I am a middle child of nine, I have seven brothers and one sister.

 

* I don't like chocolate, coffee, or tea. 

* I love to cook. My favorite thing is to bake French Macaroons! 

* Since I go to a film school, on weekends I spend most of my time helping out my classmates with their film projects- I'm usually an extra, script supervisor, slate person or help grip.

*If there was one person that inspired me in life to pursue my dreams as an artist, it is my youngest brother Iggy. We are 11 years apart but he is my closest friend.
