Bio

Hi! I'm Armaan Mumtaz, a Sophomore studying Art Practice and Media Studies at U.C. Berkeley. As a lifelong creative hobbyist and student of visual art for 5 years now, I can confidently say that my life revolves around creativity. Through this extensive dedication to the arts, I have gained experience in editorial illustration, studio art practice, assistant curation, graphic design, and layout design for newsprint. These skillsets aside, I have particularly burning passions for design, pop culture, trend-watching, magazine publication, and fashion—both as an art-form and a business. Through Bold, I'm looking for scholarships, internships or part-time job opportunities that might help me, as a student, begin my journey into a career where I can do the things I love most: think creatively, collaborate, produce, and communicate. Supplemented by my energetic and enthusiastic nature, I feel an eagerness to involve myself in creative careers, and with Bold, I hope I can get closer to collecting the resources I need to achieve my goals.
