My name is Christian Rivera, at an early age I began to realize that I had great appreciation for the arts, whether it be drawing, painting, music, photography, etc. It’s amazing what the human mind can be capable of, especially when minds come together. To be able to use imagination and create what one sees in their head is a beautiful thing.

Since I began creating art with computers, I’ve found that this is the field of art that I want to put focus into. There is great enjoyment for me as an artist and as a person that wants to broaden his mind to learn new things. Computer Graphic Design covers a diverse field of areas, I find the industry challenging and it is a field where constant study is essential.

Currently I am working on self-educating myself through and through. I’ve lost my scholarships from college, but I will not allow that to stop me from doing what I want to do. I have figured that most great artists and entrepreneurs become great by proving the world that there are other means in order to make it. I may go back when the money is there, but for now I must break free from the norm.

I am looking for an opportunity in Graphic and Web Design in order to work and learn.

Sincerely,

Christian M. Rivera
