I kept checking LinkedIn for new job postings morning, noon and night over my summer vacation. I eventually found a job opening from Dream Arc Company when they were offering internships for Visual Development Artists with little experience. I applied for it on July 11th. When I woke up one morning on July 28th, 2022, I received a message from CEO and founder of Dream Arc, Tyler Adams via LinkedIn.

I had a brief interview with Tyler via LinkedIn messenger. The questions he asked me were, “Are you alright with me having you as a Concept Artist?” and some additional questions I had in terms of schedule. Once the interview was finished Tyler sent me a Discord link to the Dream Arc Company’s group server. Tyler sent me a pitch bible outline of the series that I would be working on called “Beta Crystals” to read. After I finished reading it Tyler gave me my first assignment which was to design the home exterior and interior for a dragon character named “Tex”. He then told me to be sure to ask for feedback and give other artists feedback for guidance.
