I am Lina, a first year student at Carnegie Mellon University. I am a Design Major, where my focus goes towards building strong art fundenmetals in perspective, UI/UX, interactive design, and concept. After graduation, I aspire to pursue a career in concept art and hope to share inspiration in the video game and film industries.
Also nicknamed online as POP.
I am developing @popwerxi (17.2K on TikTok; 1.2K on Instagram), my creative online identity. After frequently drawing fanart and concepts for myself, I was encouraged by some friends to create a social platform dedicated for posting. In my freshman year of high school, I began to post reguarly throughout the pandemic.
During my sophomore year of high school, I decided to dedicate my passion for concept art and began my first passion project Redrela's Truth. In my free time, I worked on concepts, environments, story writing and boarding for an upcoming video game idea.
For the next 3 years (2022-present), I developed majority of the beginning steps of the game development, along with collaboration with composer, Joseph Justesen (jbjustesen@gmail.com) who designed themes based from my characters and environments.
