Who Is Andre Ornelas?

Andre Goulart Ornels was born in June 2003 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. His childhood consisted of both triumphs and challenges as he overcame difficulties with Asperger's Syndrome (now understood as Autism). Pursuing a guided education in Boca Raton, Florida, he would become interested in creative outlets such as drawing on many assignments, as well as a taste for photography during his high school years. Originally wanting to pursue animation as a career, he ultimately chose a jack of all trades and became a creative who focuses mainly on photography and video production. His experiences with being a photographer at Oceanside Church and Abba International church, alongside his education from Nova Southeastern University and Florida Atlantic University, enhance his experiences as a creative now resettled in Massachusetts.

The Many Names of Andre

This submission to the bio is a little bit of a joke inclusion, but still should be said and explained here. Yes, my name is Andre Ornelas. For some reason, many people have confused it with the following names. Mind you, I don't get too irritated with these, but it has become such a common occurrence to the point I should clarify that again,

MY NAME IS ANDRE ORNELAS! It is not Andres, or Andrew, or Drake,

or Dada (only close family can call me the last one.)

Yes, I do have nicknames. Please, if you must, use these instead:

How do you pronounce "Dezaos"

What do you hope to do as a career? Asked in 2023

I have learned that one should work what they enjoy doing while also keeping note of making sure that work can provide for himself and others he cares for. In honesty, I'm not sure where I'd like to end up. Parts of me want to do ministry photography, others want me to pursue graphic design, animation, or content creation. Really, I'm seeing where God's gonna place me. I'll take any creatives opportunity offered!

Now that you've graduated, what's next? Asked in 2025

I still hold true to finding work that brings passion, efficiency, and stability. As mentioned in Entry 5, I must apply until I get a yes! If not, continue the search in other creative positions. If not a photographer, I am a graphic designer; if not, I am a video producer. The best thing to do is to keep your head high and continue to climb to the top, and take a temporary rest on a mount before reaching the top!
