Growing up, I never thought I'd go into an art related career. It was one of those things that I wasn't good at, as well as I didn't know what all I could do with it. When senior year came around, I took what was called 4d art. Not knowing at all what it was I thought I'd take it just because it sounded interesting. It ended up being an intro to photoshop, which I didn't even know what it was at the time. During the entire semester I kept growing better with my projects and discovered that I was good at it and loved it. I then self taught myself everything I know today, including adobe illustrator and a little after effects. Becoming the graphic designer I am today.

I was asked to design their varsity poster for the season. They haven't had one for a long time and they wanted something new. So I held I live photoshoot where I let them decide what pose they would like for the poster. Once the photoshoot was finished I got started on designing and creating their poster. Which they used for their season.
