About

Note: "MimiMinTan" is an alias I use for many locations online. For security reasons I prefer not to distribute my real name, however if you are working for a company and would like it (for identity checks, etc.) feel free to ask. I am rather stingy about it, though!

Drawing has always been one of my most prevalent hobbies. Though my subjects have changed, I've been drawing for as long as I can remember. Upon entering college, however, I shifted my focus from visual art to interactive art. My dream is to find myself somewhere in the game design field; particularly Nintendo, as nearly all of my favorite game series originate from there. Right now, though, I'm simply working on improving my art, learning how to code, and getting through calculus alive (my biggest challenge yet!). I also speak and occasionally study the Japanese language as a hobby. I would like to learn other languages such as Swedish, Korean and Italian.

I'm currently pursuing a computer science degree (with plans to transfer) at a community college in Oregon, United States.
