I\'ve never been able to escape art. Since I was a kid, I\'ve been drawing over every piece of paper in my way. I\'ve played various instruments since I was six years old. Up until a few years ago, though, I didn\'t see art as a career. I\'ve always been in more STEM-oriented classes in school and it always seemed like art was just a hobby. But my junior year in high school really changed that. I was being mentored by a professional graphic designer and a professional industrial designer, both masters of their craft. I saw applications for my art and my engineering ability that I never knew existed before. I realized I\'m going to be an artist for the rest of my life, one way or another.
