Hi, I’m Christine. This is my fourth (and last?) year as an STA. I started when I was a nave, jobless first-year, and now I’m knowledgeable, jobfull and a fourth-year.
I have been a lot of different majors, but currently I am a French and Italian major. I get to say that I have two majors, but I only get one degree. Boo.
My specialities include graphic/webdesign and coding. I am very familiar with HTML, XHTML, CSS and Photoshop among other programs. I’m somewhat informed with Illustrator, PHP and Javascript.

STA WikiWikiWiki image

 

My name is Ashley Solano. I’ve recently become an STA, though I’ve been working with the Mezes Computer Lab since August. I did some scanning and color-correcting before and now do mostly vector work. I’m hoping to learn some coding and sharpen my vectoring skills.

I’m a third-year Japanese major with a love for vectoring, cosplay, TF2, and teaching myself guitar. My dream job would be becoming a Video Game Developer (more specifically a VG artist) and I’m hoping to reach that through STA and EGaDS, which I’ve been active in since February. I’ve also recently landed myself a sweet gig as Co-Events Officer of EGaDS.
