Brianna Patton

Hello, my name is Brianna, I recently finished my senior year of high school and will be continuing education at Columbia College Chicago in the hopes to pursue a bachelor’s degree in fine and studio arts. With this degree I hope to become an industrial designer and entrepreneur as well as being able to financially support my mom and family Throughout high school I was a member of the National Honor Society, building social skills, serving the community, practicing leadership while maintaining a passing grades. From the summer of 2021 until May of 2025 I was a student at Marquette University's Educational Opportunity Program. Where I took college courses, lived on campus, obtained a peer mediator certificate, and entrepreneurship opportunities. I enjoy theater, volunteering, dancing, nature, music, and spending time with others. My overall goal in life is to spread awareness about the impact of mental health and becoming an example of what it means to push past negativity in the form of art while also growing more in my faith and finding who I am.
