CTE Shop: Design & Visual Communications
Favorite class: Math
One skill/lesson you’ve learned at Northeast that you’ll take with you: One skill I have learned is how to tell a story through design. I enjoy being able to communicate an idea or message through cohesive design principles and having people understand what I'm trying to convey through the visuals. This is a skill that can be applied to many different areas of the art world, and I look forward to seeing where it takes me in the future.
A person who has inspired you to be your best: Mr. Peluso has helped me recognize the value and importance of my artwork. He inspired me to grow, and pursue a career doing something I love. He motivates me to give my very best.
Favorite quote: “Your future hasn’t been written yet. No one’s has. Your future is whatever you make it, so make it a good one.” - Christopher Lloyd
Plans after graduation: I would really like to continue using my art in some way. I enjoy telling stories through pictures so I’ve been looking into illustration. As of now, my plan is to create a life where I’m happy doing something I enjoy, preferably a career in animation.
