Early Life

Background
As a child Salazar grew up drawing and painting, quickly growing a love for it. As she got older her skills advanced, however many had told her it was a hard profession to survive in. She slowly lost interest and lost her drive and connection to art. When she had hit her senior year in high school, she took a art class, she quickly remembered her love for art and regain her drive. Her art teacher had entered her in many different art shows, allowing her to take free creative liberty for her pieces. One even getting stolen but a fellow school mate, in retaliation (with permission of the school) Salazar painted the same image on the school wall, where it still stands to this day. Salazar had planned to go to Brookdale Community College majoring in Forensic Science (another topic she was interested in) but after her senior year soon switch to digital animation.

Aspiration
Salazar plans to attend Savannah College of Art and Design or Montclair State University, while attending one of these schools, during the summer she will be applying for an internship at Pixar. A dream she’s had since a kid, creating something that can help kids build their dreams like they did for her.
