Here are samples of my students' collective growth through the beginning to the end of my courses.

Katie Lazo—College Courses & Student Portfolios

Course subjects: visual storytelling, illustration, production design, layout, storyboarding, acting for animation, portfolio building (mid-level and graduating), still life painting, digital illustration.

Using my decade of professional creative experience working with clients such as Warner Bros., ShadowMachine, Titmouse, Adult Swim, and WebToon—I bring my expertise and knowledge of industry standard requirements, as well as my active pulse on the trends, to the student’s portfolios. My goal as an instructor is to guide a student to understanding how to cultivate their professional skills.

In my classroom I strive to keep a positive learning environment, I believe this is the most productive way to foster a student’s growth, creativity, and self-discovery. I meet students where they are, no matter what their skill level is. With the understanding that what they will learn today, will reverberate throughout their entire career.
