Mahogany Mooney
Arkansas Virtual Academy
Career Field: Trade and Industry: Visual Arts
Hello, I am Mahogany. I am a senior at Arkansas Virtual Academy (ARVA) in the graphic design career pathway. I can confidently say that ARVA is the best school I have attended. Being a student here has allowed me to accomplish so much in preparation for a career in film which is my chosen major at the University of Memphis. I have gained a certification in Adobe and have even been able to meet with professionals in the film industry. Also, the experience of being on the Student Advisory Council has provided knowledge of marketing and allows me to be a leader in my school. My biggest goal is to start my own production company where I would like to produce and sponsor talented youth.
