I have always been drawn to animation, since seeing the first Toy story movie in 1996,though I have seen other cartoons before, seeing the at the time modern computer animation in a full length mainstream movie was something to behold at the age of 11.It was great to see a movie with a character [Andy] like me who had a wonderful imagination. Other cartoons have greatly inspired me in my pursue as a comic artist I would love to either design cartoons, comics, books, toys or t-shirts someday in the future. In addition to my love for drawing, I write smalls skits at local theater, it is the closest I have gotten to writing something of a play, I would love to write a longer story sometime. I also suggests songs and maybe some extra scenes before me and the teacher finalize the script, I mainly pick out 60’s,70’s or 80’s songs to what I feel fits the setting and characters I create. I have dabbled with playing a guitar off and on it is always good to learn new things and expand upon my horizons, I feel like college is definitely gonna expand my knowledge, not only to possibly get a degree but the experience alone is gonna be great.
