Hi, my name is Hannah Bontinen and I am a first-year student in the Capilano U IDEA school of design program. Being born in North Van I have always loved being outdoors doing activities like hiking and snowboarding. In high school, I was apart of the PLP program that focused on project-based learning and allowed me to develop artistic and technological skills (you can check out my old high school blog and projects here). Pursuing art as a career has always been a dream so I am very thankful for apart of this program to learn and grow as an artist.
