    Video Games are amazing, unlike movies where we can only watch what happens, but video games allow us to make our own decisions and even sometimes craft our own stories. The interactive sense in the gaming world is what makes it so popular. Ever since I was young, I have wanted—nothing but to be a part of that world. Creating art has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. Seeing the beautiful designs of various characters, creatures, vehicles, worlds, and much more Have always drawn me near to video games. Designing Worlds is a big part of who I am. Taking a blank slate, and drawing that first line on a page, could be the next step to creating a fantastical land that no one has ever imagined. Every single decision I make could be an essential part of that world. Whether it's magical water that gives life or a technologically advanced weapon that can decimate planets. In these worlds, There is so much that needs to be done and can be created. I believe characters are what genuinely make a world, a live-able place. The people of that planet or land are truly what make up that world The clothes they wear, the weapons they carry, and even the hairstyles they wear are all essential to the lives they live and how they blend in with the environments around them. Being an artist who eventually wants to make video games, has given me a purpose in life. The way my brain works makes it hard for me to focus on normal day jobs. But I always knew in the back of my head that I would never be able to live like that. Gaming allows me to escape to different dimensions where I don’t have to think about my struggles in life. Even when I am having bad days that make me think of horrible thoughts, gaming is always there to pick me back up. People in my life would tell me that I would never amount to anything if I chose the artistic path. but at the end of the day, it was the only thing that could make me happy in life. Countless people of all ages live lives just like mine, and even worse. And I want to create for all those people whether they are having the time of their lives or grieving from their worst days. I want to be there for all of them, and I believe through creating amazing video games, I can reach people all over the world. I hope one day I can share my stories and creativity with everyone.
