I'm currently a student, again. I previously attended college, and I have two degrees, one AAS in Web Design, the other an AAS is Graphic Design. Currently, I am finishing up my AA, and transferring to teach. Its still a tossup between religious studies, history, English, and Art. Art has been a big part of my life, as well as reading, and learning. History is so important to me, as it reflects on art and literature of that given era.
Besides my schooling, I also fancy myself as an artist. Originally I worked with digital works in Photoshop and Painter, but I've since moved on to more traditional mediums with painting. I'm actually working on a few pieces for a gallery showcase soon, I'm quite excited for that. My art seems to be surreal, fantastic in nature.
Lastly, I'm also an amateur musician. I play guitar, bass, ukulele, harmonica, and piano. I fiddle with recording now and then, when I fit it into my hectic life.
