I have always enjoyed art. I took a couple art classes in high school: drawing and painting and digital photography. It was a nice escape from the rest of the busy school day. In my digital photography class, I was exposed to the electronic side of art that I continued to pursue at WPI by taking classes such as graphic design and 3D modeling. When I was younger, I went to a couple art camps where I had the opportunity to work with many different mediums of art doing things like pottery and a variety of painting styles.
I have minimal background in programming, although I have worked with Java in the past. I also took an ECE course.
I started ballet when I was little and continued throughout high school. I also used to play the clarinet in middle school and sang in the choir in high school.
I am really inspired by nature. The sky has always fascinated me. I love watching sunrises and sunsets and looking at the moon. My family and I have traveled to many national parks, and I think that those trips made me appreciate nature and all the things it is capable of creating. I love taking photographs of these places, just to attempt to capture the beauty and awe of the place.
Thinking about all the art related things I have done in my life, art has not been enough of a part of my life these past couple years. I hope to pick up more of it again because it really does make me happy. I miss the feeling of feeling so accomplished for making something out of nothing.
Below are some of the works that I have created at WPI. The first two are 3D modeled using mostly ZBrush. The third one is a comic strip I created based on the character I made in Maya. The last two images are a magazine layout I designed and include images that I took.
