Early Life

Since an early age he felt the desire and love for drawing and painting. Ramirez's love for painting and drawing was more noticeable than every common child in the classroom. At the age of 12, he started to paint imaginary characters that someday he wished they become the next TV show that will catch the attention of millions. This idea was the main reason why he chose design and arts as a carrier.

Graduated in 2004 from High school Liceo Lic. Victor Estrella Liz with a technical degree in informatics. His love for drawing and computers got together to push even farther his desire to become a designer. In 2006 he was awarded with a full scholarship from the Dominican government and CUNY to study abroad. Starting with a major in Liberal Arts and Science, after 3 years later he found out about the design program at Hostos Community College and made the decision of enrolling in the design program which was where he really wanted to be.

Expecting to graduate from Hostos Community College, and then move on to his Bachelor's degree and a Master's degree in Arts to get to the top of his goal which is to take over every branch of designing and master it.
