WILEY WHATLEY

At the end of my service as a United States Marine, I decided to change gears and pursue a career in something I was more passionate about. I came to the Academy of Art in San Francisco to study as a Concept Artist for games, and quickly discovered that I felt I had found where I belonged. I'm a passionate designer who loves to bring people into a world which they want to immerse themselves into, delving into stories that tear you apart in the way that you love. My ambitions and go-getter attitude meshed well with the people at Drawaholics, and I was fortunate enough to be the first freshman to be elected to a leadership position. I imagine I was elected for sheer enthusiasm. I look forward to the future of the Drawaholics and its members. The group draws in people with the right mindset for growth, and I can't wait to see how far everyone goes.
