About Me

My name is Palma Jean. I moved to Milwaukee less than three weeks ago after growing up in the Adirondacks of New York. I am a second year student, currently enrolled in the Computer Science Program looking to venture in to Software Engineering Program. I transferred from a small college in Upstate New York, hoping that with a change in scenery, separation from things in my past that were dragging me down, and a new/ more structured form of education, I will find and build more successes for myself. COVID put a severe damper on my life, forced me to change life plans a couple dozen times. I am glad I have finally broken away from all of that and made my way to Milwaukee.

I was looking forward to taking an Art based class this semester, as my previous 3 semesters have only been core course work for my previous academic focus- Cybersecurity. I have taken a lot of joy in doing things like photography, artistic editing, and even creating logos for small businesses and gamers/ E-Sports members. I have what I would consider a somewhat decent photography set up, I cannot wait for spring so I can go out and explore the city and take photos. I enjoy looking at various examples of fashion design and interior design. When I was younger I massed ridiculous amounts of Pinterest boards filled with different design ideas ranging from minimalist, to boho chic, urban and black and gold. I truly had no intention of ever using those boards as inspiration for design in my own life, it was just a small way to escape into something when I needed to do so. 

At some point down the road I want to build a massive customized barndominium with a very large attached work shop. I am very picky when it comes to things like that, so even though I am far away from making that happen, I have already collected ideas for what I may want the custom home to look like. There are many floor plans that already exist that I like to a certain degree, but they just aren’t  quite what I am looking for. I think that there might be some things within this design course that could present itself as useful knowledge in the future for various things in my life.
