Name: Ting Chen

Location: somewhere in the USA

Occupation: Graduate Student

Bio: Aren't profiles fun? Anyways, I'm Ting. I recently graduated with a BFA from Carnegie Mellon University and am currently going to grad school to study interactive and entertainment technologies. Isn't that a lot to think about? I do illustrations, comics, animations, and game design, but I guess career-wise, I'm heading in the more digital direction. I'd prefer to not restrict myself to one category. Unfortunately, that also means my time gets scattered everywhere and I get stuck when it comes to those final decisions like, which company am I going to apply to? Or perhaps I should just do it all solo?

Personally, just being able to work towards a life in the creative field is enough to make me happy. You can decide whether that's optimism or having goals that are too low. :P I have dreams and goals to obtain, just the fact that I'm heading in that direction makes me happy.

Likes: Being a generalist, movies, video games, audiobooks, food of most sorts, martial arts, and new to the list is archery

Dislikes: spiders. Really really dislike spiders

Favorite Quotes: "As the seconds of our lives are ticking away, you have to realize that life needs to be an adventure." - Hans Zimmer
"I'm only here to see how the story unfolds. Any self-respecting leading man would do the same." - Balthier (Final Fantasy 12)
