I felt a trade would give me the opportunity to follow that path. I chose a career in digital art because it&#8217;s something I&#8217;m passionate about and really enjoy doing. It\u2019s an industry that allows for a lot of creativity and flexibility, which I think will keep my career interesting and enjoyable. I also love how many different jobs it can branch off into. There are so many options!\u00a0 Someday, I would love to work in the video game industry creating character models or game props.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">In high school, my digital media teacher introduced me to skills competitions. This has given me the opportunity to step out of my comfort zone and try new things. I have enjoyed meeting new people and traveling to new places. When I placed third at the Skills Canada National Competition, it felt unreal. I was not expecting it at all. It was an awesome surprise. I know that my biggest challenge at WorldSkills Lyon 2024 is going to be time management, since I tend to be a perfectionist.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">I&#8217;m really looking forward to meeting other 3D artists from different countries!<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Interesting Fact<\/span><\/b><br \/>\n<span data-contrast=\"none\">I\u2019m a lifeguard and swim instructor.
