I’m currently a studio art major with a focus on animation. I enjoy metalsmith work, hiking, traveling and shopping! I stay involved by serving as a student ambassador for the art department, and also serve as the Senator for College of the Arts with ASI. The reason I chose °µÍøÊÓÆµis because it has a really great art program in all areas and really does give a lot of helpful resources to students majoring in art! But, through the pandemic, it has been tough to get accustomed to °µÍøÊÓÆµ and transferring from El Camino College during the start of it was harder. I grew accustomed to learning online but had a few in person classes so I was able to get a bit of that experience. This Spring semester will be my last semester at °µÍøÊÓÆµand it will all be in person so I hope to get the most out of being in person for majority of my classes.

What brought me to °µÍøÊÓÆµwas the art program: I was highly fascinated by it. I did not know which other university to go to other than CSULB. The arts program here is what I’ve been looking for and it is something I highly enjoy.

What I plan to do next after graduation is apply for internships and work on a portfolio to show my skills and knowledge of all that I learned at CSULB.

I was interested in learning more about different opportunities and learning about what to do next after graduation.
