I am a Chicana artist pursuing a BFA in Graphic Design at the University of Texas at El Paso. My passion for art, particularly in graphic design, illustration, and concept art for film and video game industries, has been a driving force in my journey. This passion led me to pursue my degree and become a concept artist at student org: Bandit Game Studio, as well as a Graphic Designer at the UTEP Library. I am a self-motivated, reliable, and dedicated artist, focused not only on bringing my ideas to life but also on delivering a meaningful message through my work.When I'm not creating art, I am either playing video games, listening to music, or watching true crime documentaries. More often than not, though, I am catching up on sleep.
