Hi!
My name is Amanda Jow and I am a native Californian. I was born in San Francisco but moved to nearby city called Millbrae when I was a toddler. Being so close to the city I would go there once if not twice a week to enjoy the cities numerous parks, restaurants, and art museums. Growing up in such a culturally diverse community has played a large influence of how I see and interact with the world.
As I a child quiet and socially awkward so I preferred activities that I could do by myself. So reading became one of my favorite activities, only second to art. In middle school I read so much, my eyes would sometimes blur from staring at tiny text from hours on end. My favorite genres at the time were mystery and adventure. Starting high school I began to stop reading for fun. Having decided to pursue art professionally I neglected my previous passion for reading, only reading the handful of books that were assigned for school. The books listed for this class seem interesting and span a variety of genres, particularly the wonder women book! I am excited to start reading again and hopefully this class will be the push I need to re-commit myself to reading for fun again.
