Bio

My name is Evan Deschenes but most of my friends just call me ev! I was born and raised in Westford, Mass with my sister and family. Growing up I have always been adventurous from Snowboarding, to surfing, and hiking most outdoor activities have always been my favorite. I have a passion for art and snowboarding and I hope to combine these two skills one day and pursue a profession along those lines. Attending the University of Maine was one of the best decisions I ever made, I currently am studying New Media as my major and it is very exciting. One day, I will live out west among the vast and glorious mountains where I can snowboard everyday, listen to epic Phish jams, and create the most prestige snowboard company in the country.

Creative Statement

I chose to study New Media as my major most importantly because I want to expand my artistic horizons. By my senior year I would hope to accomplish a much better understanding of what new media is and how to apply this knowledge to everyday thinking. I am inspired and motivated by others around me who have the ability to think differently and ask questions that I would never think of that ultimately leads them to their goal. My inspirations come from my creative outside of the box way of thinking and I am going to apply this skill to my courses throughout school.
