As a kid, when I was 5 years old, my kindergarten teacher told my parents that I would never be able to function as a normal child and that I will be incapable to do anything.

So, as my dad learned different ways on how to teach me, he noticed that I can learn things through pictures. My dad noticed that I loved cameras because I would always talk about them. I took great pictures and showed a passion for it. My dad helped me to make sure that I would be successful as a Digital Media Artist. He helped me with my craft of using a professional camera by learning how to better enhance my eye, looking at artwork, and helping me with my classes using cue cards. As a result of the skills I've developed, he assisted with making those connections over the years of being at High School of Graphic Communication Arts, that would help me achieve.
