Hello! My name is Natasha Lee, and I am starting my first year in the IDEA program at Capilano University. Recently, I graduated from Lord Byng Secondary School, specifically the Byng Arts Mini program, and it is because of my experiences in high school that I chose to attend Capilano University to study visual arts. I had never once considered pursuing the arts as anything more than a hobby as I grew up. I had always been under the impression that all artists would be \u201cstarving\u201d and for the vast majority, unsuccessful and jobless. My views only changed when I encountered many professionals at school assemblies who adored their careers in the arts and witnessed many of my seniors graduating from my program and continuing their studies in visual arts.\u00a0Capilano University proved to be the best choice for me as its program offers work experience opportunities besides a promising education in desirable skills I could apply in the art industry and beyond. I am very excited that I have chosen to be part of this community and am looking forward to my next four years here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
