Myself

I guess I never really introduced myself. My name is Sergio Gonzalez and I was born in Santiago, Chile in 1982. I am enrolled in the Applied Science degree for Photography at NVCC and I am enjoying the experience and opportunity to express my creative side, a side that was last seen at the age of 6 through my set of Legos. My interest in photography began in high school when I was admiring the works of my classmates who were enrolled in photo classes. I was involved in sports and other activities that took up the majority of my time and prevented me from following the small ambition that I had growing in my heart. When I entered NVCC, I decided to excel in Emergency Medicine through the EMT degree program that was offered. When I graduated I realized that I had to get some things organized in my own life before I could aquire a job in the field, so I decided to go back to school and continue my education. I noticed that I had acquired a significant amount of credits that were never put to use so I decided to follow my desire to explore the film world and what it had to offer. Ever since I enrolled in the program, I've found myself shining away from the television and steered my attention to what was seen through the view finder in my camera. It was love. I hope to complete a portfolio that can help express where my life has taken me and what it's taken me through and at the same time expose my soul to the rest of the world for a better understanding. I'll make it known when I feel like it's complete, or sufficiently plentiful for a proper presentation. As for the future, I want to pursue the field of Emergency Medical Technicians and some how find time to continue my involvment in the photography world and hopefully find a way to combine the both. Who knows what can happen. But I'll do my best to make something happen.
