UpSkill V1 Cohort: I've been interested in graphic/web design when I was in 8th graded through my first two years in high school. I always found it cool and it grabbed my attention, but they didn't teach me the advance skills I'm learning right now in the UpSkilled NY program. I'm only 19 and its only the beginning. In high school I was taught some points of technology but the last four weeks I've learned so much.

Upskill V2 Cohort: As time goes on everything changes and shifts around as people find new and easier ways to do things, so as someone who is currently attempting to get into this field, I acknowledge that there will always be something new for me to learn and there will always be someone who know it better than I do. I am a hard-working individual who believes in always pushing forward even when you don't think you can because the alternative would be giving up and refusing to learn to be better.

Upskill V2 Cohort: “When you stop trying to be better, you stop being good.” I am constantly striving to improve both myself and my skills. I keep an open mind with every experience because I believe they act as learning curves for the future. I put my all into everything I do and I take pride in a job well done.
