My name is Luis Ramirez Soto. I’m a Napa Valley resident and I’m taking the Digital Design Graphics Technology program at the Napa Valley College. I have always been interested in art, creativity, and having that ability to create something that helps my community in a positive way. A few years ago I began my adventure into Digital Media, and there I managed to develop my creative skills using Photoshop, Premiere Pro, Adobe Audition, and AutoCAD among others.

I have worked alongside the Napa community and together, we recorded several events that are important and fun. I was in charge of recording the Christmas Parade, the Christmas Tree Lighting and the Napa Lighted Art Festival. Thanks to these experiences and opportunities, I achieved the Career Technical Education (CTE) Student Award. I am bilingual with my native language being Spanish. I learned it thanks to my parents and the time I spent while living in Mexico.

My goals are to have my own studio. I focus a lot on commercial and artistic graphic design. Emphasizing the artistic, another one of my goals is to study cinematography and be able to bring all the emotions to the big screen. I am not afraid to make bold decisions to move forward in life and I am prepared for what destiny has in store for me.
