Our Maker with Attitude in EDAT Academy 7/17 (Jessy Balza)
Ciao a tutti! My name is Jessy Balza, I am 20 years old, I am currently a student of Architecture at the #UniversidadDeLosAndes.
I consider myself a determined, persistent, focused, very objective and capable person.
From a very young age I have been creative with # PensamientoArtístico y visual; At my early age I was very shy and the way I best expressed myself was through pencil and paper. I like to personalize most of what I always carry with me. All my life has been based on that, on creation, practice, art, design, own thinking, ideas. I currently have a small project together with a colleague called @_mosett
What motivated me to want to belong to the family of the EDAT academy is that, as we currently know, our country is going through a crisis not only economic, but also social and cultural, where day after day young people We face the few possibilities and opportunities to continue exercising and forging for our future in the midst of so much chaos, therefore #EDAT emerged as an opportunity, which will allow people like me, passionate about #art and #design, or simply with the desire to continue enriching their knowledge and fighting for their dreams, moving forward, paving the way for the future and the drive of so many young people that today we are at a static point, and we will achieve this in the most ingenious way possible, since the #creativity, design, art and technology will be unified here for the first time in us to allow us to make our way through so much rubble that we must face today.
Belonging to the EDAT academy has been an experience full of magic, despite being a small family, every day we feel the desire and effort of each one of us, giving our best, but not only individually, but also Together, since we become a great team and we support and strengthen each other on a daily basis, in addition to the laughter and occurrences, they are a fundamental part of our day to day at the School.
Jessy is one of the 17 students who won a scholarship to attend the first year of maker training at EDAT. Our projects are convinced that the best way to combat poverty is through education. In fact our slogan as an academy is "hope through creativity"
