Salutations. My name is Trinity Nguyen, I’ve been a student learning under Mrs. Heiland for the last four years. I am part of the film crew for Santiago High School, and also a multi-media artist. Since I have gotten here I have been able to learn much about the industry for the arts as well as further perfecting my skills here. Once I graduate I hope to do some sort of career in art for the future.

One thing I aim for most for the future is becoming a mangaka. I aspire to walk the same path as my idol, Eiichiro Oda, and hope I can achieve at least a fraction of what he was able to. His series One Piece has been my biggest inspiration in my life since it helped me choose what I wanted to do with my life. Video games, cartoons, and online media have always been an inspiration for my artistic endeavors, eastern media especially. My art reflects my very personality, and my inconsistency as I tend to want to be well rounded in many things as well as not having the attention span to focus on one thing either.

I’m grateful that you took the time to read this and I hope to have a life where I can pursue art as a career without going financially broke. I can’t wait for what the future holds for me and the projects I’ll be doing during my last year here. And as a greatly written characters have once said:
