My name is Marcos Madera and I am 22 years old. I was born and raised my whole life in the little village area of Chicago. I went to Zapata Academy and graduated high school in 2016. I have a very happy and energetic personality and love to make people laugh and have a good time.

What drove me towards going into an associate’s degree in Graphic Design was my passionate for video games. I have been a gamer my whole life and fell in love with the graphics and art work that made up a whole video game. My eagerness to learn more about graphic design brought me to enroll into Harold Washington College seeking an associate’s degree in Digital Multimedia Design. Throughout my time at Harold Washington College I have demonstrated that my outstanding time management skills have enabled me to efficiently prepare and finish project without worry about deadlines.
