all jus-... haha ok jk. But in all seriousness, I still do ask myself that question once in awhile. I guess I kinda believe that's what living is all about. Yea, that probably sounds corny but hey, give me a break here I'm trying to make you're reading experience a little more than boring here.
So, with that untypical intro out of the way, the name given to be at birth was
Michael John Laygo Yra.
like how I gave it it's own line? haha. I was born and raised in Vallejo, CA and still call that bubble home till this day. Despite the bad name the city has given itself, I will always see it as my stomping grounds. Plus, Vallejo in all actuality isn't as bad as most non-Vallejoans believe.
I have always been a creative person and loved dreaming up new ideas. I've always challenged my imagination with a various number of things. Growing up in the 90's was easy because of the explosion of all this new media and technology. Me and my siblings had plenty of video games to keep us occupied. It was also a big event when my family had purchased their first PC, then it was all down hill form there haha. It's basically why I'm such a nerd/"techie" today.
So I'm just another person with a passion for Design as well as many other creative fields.
I'm always open to new things, and currently trying to change my old ways for the better.
the Beautiful Struggle...

What Inspires/”WOWs” YOU?
Many things inspire me, I know it's not much of a great answer but life itself inspires me and I wholeheartedly believe that. The amount of inspiration that exists is unimaginable just as long as you open your mind to it all. I love animation, so these days I'm heavily influenced by music and modern hiphop dance. Majority of the time I listening to music. I'm envisioning movement in many shapes and forms. Whether it be how a certain 3d object or how a body part moves along with the music. Possibilities are endless when it comes to imagination and creativity.
I feel that so many people are stuck within their bubbles/comfort zones that they don't get to see what's really out there in the world. Numerous cultures that all have their own unique perspectives on life and art. If there's anything that "WOWs" me it's the overwhelming reality of this.
Who, or What are your influences?
I have much respect for the history and origins of things, but I think I draw a lot influence off the things I've grew up with. I believe everyone has a story worth telling and that lessons are always embedded into each one.
I've always heavily influenced by my environment and especially my peers. We're all bound to know at least a couple of people that do great things, and I'm proud to be able to say that I know many. This ranges anywhere from family, friends, teachers, and (sure, why not) relatively famous people haha.
What is your Vision or HOPE in your life(time): academically; professionally; and/or socially.
My general vision/goal is to never stop observing and to never stop growing. It's about paying attention to what's happening and responding to it accordingly. Hopefully, later down the line I manage to find the balance between security and passion. When I was growing up, I was being taught that security was very important. This is because I had been learning from individuals that didn't necessarily have security themselves when they were growing up. It was about choosing the correct career path that obviously paid the most money. Simultaneously, passion usually entailed a career that was the opposite and didn't pay very much at all. My dream is to find that balance, and I don't intend to give up anytime soon.
