Why I did choose my career?

Hi classmates! As I told you in the previous post, I studied Design at the Universidad de Chile, two years.  Since at that time, I was very good at drawing and creating, in fact, I was so good that I was assistant to the art teacher at school, and my paintings were all over the school, even in the teachers' room. But I finally realized that I didn't want to work on that, I preferred to have it as a hobby, since I can exploit creativity when it is something that is born in me, not something for others, much less for a company.

Hi mates!  I do not like to be self-referent but its time to talk a little about me. My name is Camila Castillo, as you know. I was born in Santiago (I've lived my whole life in this city) and I studied at a school in La Florida all my high school. Good learning times and few responsibilities. In this times I discovered my skills for music and drawing. First I learned to play the guitar in a music academy and later a trumpet, autonomously and with friends. In this point in time was when I formed my first band. A band with many influences, like, jazz, ska, rhythm and blues. This band didn't last long because we all leaved far away and I entered to University. My first career was Design in Universdad de Chile. I chose this career for my drawing abilities and the love for creativity and the avant-garde. But then I realized that I didn't want to spend all my time in front of a computer and I started thinking that I wanted to make with my life.
