This summer, I am trying to devote as much time as I can to developing my art. It is the summer before my senior year, which means I am working on my portfolio to apply for colleges. I know improvement comes from practice, but I feel like I struggle without a structured learning environment. For this reason, I want to study at the League, where Seeds can offer me a scholarship to support me in taking classes.

When I grow up, I want to work in animation. Although I eventually want to write and direct animation, currently I am striving to be a storyboard artist. This will mean creating many quick but legible drawings that tell a story. Storytelling is a part of all types of media whether it be books, news, podcasts, movies, shows, and more.

Dana Terrace is one of the artists who has influenced me the most. From her work on Gravity Falls to Ducktales to The Owl House, I have always been in love with her work and her art. In fact, I transferred high schools to an art-focused school so that I can focus on this career as much as possible. It is very important to me, and it is what I am passionate about, so I am trying to take every opportunity that I can.
