Andrea Beatriz Montes Alarcon

BFA Graphic Design

DESIGNER STATEMENT: My name is Andrea Montes is an undergraduate student that came from Guatemala to pursue a career in the United States. At first, I wasn’t sure what career path I wanted to go to I went to the veterinarian path but that did not go so well so I choose to be a graphic designer and I loved this path better than the other path. Growing up I like to draw and paint as well as dance, I would also help my dad in his home veterinary clinic with his patients. That is why I pursued that career path to become a veterinarian I wanted to be like my dad, but it did not pan out the way I wanted it. Then I soon realized that I wasn’t cut out for this path so I choose graphic design and I feel like I am at a better career than the veterinarian one.
