Born and raised on the island of Trinidad, Amanda never dreamed of being an artist but only had the goal of becoming a chef. After graduating high school she moved to New York and realized that she can draw pretty well and with the flip of a coin she entered school to earn a degree in Graphic Design and Illustration. She moved to San Francisco to continue on the path of art and is currently enrolled at the Academy of Art University to study Animation and Visual Effects. Still having a passion for food, her only work experiences consist of working in kitchens so she is not working hard to get her name out there as a professional Graphic Designer with a focus on Illustration. Still growing in every aspect of her life she hopes to make a positive and well deserved impact on the world with her work.
