BAVC helped me decide where I should go with my career. Before attending the Bridges Fellowship I had a partial toolbox of skills and some loose ideas about my future, but I wasn't sure how to make it all work. After taking a class in Javascript, I learned that programming wasn't nearly as difficult as I thought it was.

I recall my relationship with Bay Area Video Coalition beginning in 1982 when I produced Art In The Park. BAVC was one of the exhibiting artists groups who enhanced the event with their presence. My awareness of BAVC's presence and impact in our communities has remained since that time.

In June 2014, I took a huge leap and left a job I hated to wholeheartedly pursue my goal of being an illustrator and graphic designer. It was the scariest and best thing I've ever done.

Last fall, my older sister, Reyna, was starting her second year with BAVC. She thought that I would enjoy filmmaking. Reyna encouraged me to apply. I happily agreed thinking that it would be a good way for me to make friends and express myself in a new way. BAVC helped me do all of these things and more.

I remember going to BAVC’s first building, when they were on Potrero Hill, and the first classes they offered. This was when video was expanding from a recording medium to a storytelling medium and documentary format all its own.
