About
Hey there! I'm taking my first year of classes at the University of Houston. I'm a member of the Honors College and majoring in English. My minor is currently undecided, but will either be art or graphic design. I'm happiest when I'm creating something. A portfolio of my digital art can be found here: https://spark.adobe.com/page/xwe3nQ4H3qx7Z/

Goals and interests
- Career goal
I'm currently looking for work at a graphics studio. After graduation, I'd be happy working in nearly any visual or fiction creative field - writing, publishing, illustrating, storyboarding, etc.
- Graduate school interests
My dream would be to attend the University of Iowa's graduate program for writers. I also plan on taking a few art and animation classes, but not necessarily a degree.
- Outside the classroom
I write and draw in my free time - sometimes small projects, sometime I illustrate or animate for a freelance job, and sometimes I'm working on projects that will one day be completed and (hopefully) published.
