I recently earned my undergraduate degree in Photography from Columbia College Chicago. After 4 years of studying there, I left the school with just over $40,000 in debt, that's even with numerous scholarships and grants that I was awarded while in school. After finishing, my biggest monthly expense is my school loans, which is right around $400 a month. Rather than work some job I don't really enjoy just to pay off my loans, I devised a way of selling my work, that will earn me money to pay back my loans, while also donating a portion of the money back to other aspiring artists. This is my way of trying to repay my school loans in a creative fashion that will benefit me, as well as others.
