<h1>About</h1>
<h2>TL; DR - An Intro</h2>
<p>My name is Alex Scerba, and I am an undergrad design student at the College for Creative Studies (CCS) in Detroit, MI. I enjoy drawing, web development, bicycles, motorcycles, and just overall messing around/tinkering with products and objects.</p>
<p>I use this site to practice graphic design and web development as well as share what I'm doing with friends, family, and whoever else is interested.</p>

<h2>Long Story Long</h2>
<h3>Higher Education Journey</h3>
<p>Initially on track to be a software developer or computer scientist, I spent most of high school learning about computers and programming. My first year of school was at the Milwaukee Schoool of Engineering (MSOE) for a degree in computer science in 2020-2021, the first full school year durring the pandemic. Not a great year for school. By the end, I decided that a CS degree wasn't for me. I didn't want to work at a software dev company, and some of the advanced math didn't get me excited.</p>
<p>When I was in elementary school, I would doodle and draw pretty decently, but never did anything with it. Throughout my first year of college, though, I made it a point to try and fill a sketchbook with drawings, so when I decided to leave MSOE it was a guiding factor in choosing where I wanted to go next.</p>
<p>Growing up around motorcycles and cars, and finding enjoyment in working on and fixing them, I looked for a career path that merged vehichles and drawing, and that's how I discovered the Transportation Design department at CCS.</p>
