Amidst the challenges brought by the pandemic in 2020, I graduated in May 2024 from Ball State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree. Over the course of four years, I immersed myself in a diverse range of art courses, exploring various disciplines such as drawing, painting, sculpture, and media studies, including theater. This educational journey not only provided me with a solid foundation in artistic techniques, visual communication, and critical thinking but also allowed me to find my community on campus. Getting to know people throughout my time at Ball State has enriched my experience and broadened my perspective, enhancing both my personal growth and academic achievements. These experiences have equipped me with the skills and creativity essential not only for success in fine arts but also in other fields.
