Well, hi, everyone.

I'm so excited to be here today, and my name is Zenrei Gu.

I'm currently 16, a senior from Chandler, Arizona, and, um, I just recently started my senior year, so it's been a lot of fun in that.

And the main reason and the backstory behind Art Mind, so I actually started Art Mind my freshman year of high school because ever since I was around five years old, I've always been super passionate in the arts.

I've loved either doing art classes, like I've done painting, charcoal, different sketches, things of that nature, and then at the same time, I actually do Chinese classical dance since I was nine.

So, um, both of them combined together really harbored my love for art, and I always thought art was a great way for me to not only express myself, but also unwind from the stresses of my day.
