We are thrilled and honored to connect with a new friend of the program, Ms. Emily Switzer. Talented as she is inspiring, it is hard not to be motivated by stories like Emily's.
Originally hailing from Toronto, ON, Emily had already achieved success in her career while working on critically acclaimed long-format projects in the VFX industry. That said, she had her sights set on new horizons so she elected to pursue her passion and begin her self-education as a 3D artist.
After successfully "burning the ships" and freelancing for 3 years, Emily reinvented herself in the fields of digital fashion illustration, 3D design and art direction.
With a client roster that includes Nike, Champion, Farfetch, Tess Van Zalinge and Off-White, Emily's continual mission is to "make stunning visuals that push the expectations of what digital art can achieve."
Big ups and much respect for taking that chance, Emily.
