I am Ariel Etzel, I am an artist and 3D modeler. I am a recent graduate from Brookdale Community College and majored in 3D Animation.

     When it comes to creativity, I am someone that likes to visualize concepts for fun or before handling a project. These projects can be from a simple drawing to an animated scene. Something that keeps me driven is how I could possibly create something and it can be admired by multiple people. Since I admire multiple creative media myself, I hope that I could receive similar praise in the future from my own creative projects.

     I want to strive to be a known artist/animator in the industry and have my work recognized in the media I work with.
