Kris Majka believes everyone should ‘follow their passion’. He followed his love of art and now his dream career in digital media is within reach and his vision for the future is in view.
This spring, Kris will graduate from Alfred State with a bachelor’s degree in digital media and animation. After that, he expects to go to graduate school for video editing before making his boldest move yet: a trek across country to Los Angeles where he plans to start his career in digital media.
“When you follow your passion, it takes you places,” said Kris.
“I immediately felt a sense of belonging at Alfred State and have felt that way every day since,” says Kris.
