Ever since I was young, I was always creating. I was the child who drew on the corner of his homework instead of actually doing the homework. Growing up I always told myself, "I am going to be an artist one day". Little did I know I always was one. I didn't know what a loaded term "artist" was. Everything around us is art. Thats's how my brain understands the world. My hardships and happiest moments all contribute to my inspiration. When I was able to advocate for myself and go to college, I chose to translate some of my artistic skills to the digital realm. I have an associate degree in digital media and design from the College of Lake County in Grayslake, Illinois. I began freelancing to help put myself through school. I discovered my love for learning and education in general. I decided I would use the skills I learn for good. Now I work with nonprofits of all kinds. I want to make a difference and make younger Jared proud. I know he would be.
