Although I go to school at Central Washington University, I am actually from Eugene, Oregon. Ever since I could remember, I always loved being creative. Drawing, painting, sculpting, I have almost done it all.

Something that many people don’t see to often are those who are in the creative and athletic field. When I was ten years old, my mother introduced me to volleyball. My mother, back in the day, played for the University of Washington and team USA before retiring to raise her family. I absolutely love the sport and for the next eleven years I played up until my second to last quarter collage. I officially retired from the Central Washington volleyball team winter of 2023 so I can focus on graduating this upcoming summer.

What I am pursuing in the workforce is a job where I can continue to be creative and help others who need designs. It’s this reason why I am studying graphic design as I can put time into creating while working with others.
