There is no doubt Carmen is a hard worker.
When she puts her mind to something, there is no stopping her.
It's been fun to watch her develop her interests and figure out what she's passionate about.
This past year she has really enjoyed and excelled at online design and coding.
She's always been artistic and has been engineering and creating things since she was small.
It seems like online design has blended her two loves.
Through school last year she was exposed to a program called Shapegrams.
A special digital learning specialist came in once a week to lead an
online design session on how to use basic shapes to create objects and pictures.
It was a pilot program that was a big success.
Carmen loved it and couldn't wait for those special days.
She caught on to the program and tasks quickly and was recognized for her work.
She developed a pretty cool Christmas card of her own design which
earned her a nod from the creator of Shapegrams, Tony Vincent.
After a couple more months of working with the program,
Carmen and one of her best friends, Allison, got further accolades.
They both were featured in a blog post
Tony also had some nice words for the girls.
This summer Carmen is participating in one of Tony's online design courses.
All participants are adult educators and Carmen is the only kiddo.
She's learning a lot, honing her skills and her craft.
So excited to see what this girl will do next!
