I have always been known to be shy and reserved. While this is me, there is more to be seen. I am a nerd, an artist, and a performer. Many of the things I can do, people don’t expect. With my three pieces, I wanted to showcase myself to those who may not know what I can do and what I like. I want them to see more than the shy, reserved girl I present on the outside.

Throughout each piece, the lines,” I am a NERD”, “I am an ARTIST”, and “I am a PERFORMER” show. Each word stated describes me, my interests, and my talents.

“I am a NERD,” represents my love of video games, cartoons, and Marvel. These items are typically seen as “nerdy”, and I decided to embrace that. “I am an ARTIST,” shows my talent as an artist of makeup, drawing, and illustration. Art has always been a part of my life and I thought it was only appropriate to include it. Finally, “I am a PERFORMER,” draws from my experience as a baton twirler and a dancer. This is the thing that many people outside of my life seem surprised about because I become a completely different person when I perform. While shy, I love performing.
