Get to Know Elliott Lee by Elliott Lee

916 Native / Sadly, Sacramento Kings Fan

I hail from the great Sacramento, California (said no one ever)! Sacramento provided me with some of the greatest childhood memories, and some of the most heartbreaking; mainly because of the NBA team, the Sacramento Kings. My family bleeds purple, and my grandfather would be considered King's royalty; he has witnessed the only Sacramento Kings championship (1955). Sacramento has been so much more than just a hometown, it represents the growth I have made since graduating high school, the growth my family has made, and the growth my friends have made. I truly would not be where I am today if it were not for the great city of Sacramento

Photography

Photography has always been a passion of mine. Starting in highschool joining the photography club. At the end of every school day, we would meet and share the coolest photos we saw on the internet that day. We would analyze how they were shot and what makes them "visually appealing." This has carried throughout my life.

Skiing!

I apologize for including a selfie here. The rest of my GoPro footage does have some profanity from myself being a little scared on the mountain, and I did not have the time to edit it. Skiing has always been a part of my life. Skiing acts almost as a sanctuary for me. When I ski, I feel all my problems go away, and just appreciate the view, the snow, and how lucky I am to be able to do such a sport. I learned to ski before I could even run. I grew up going to my family's cabin in Serene Lakes, CA, and am proud to call Palisades Tahoe my home mountain!

Honestly, one of the happiest moments of my life. Despite being from the West Coast, my MLB team is from the North. My uncle lived in Toronto for 6 years and brought me back my first jersey, a baby blue Toronto Blue Jays Jersey. During April to October, this team takes control of my heart and mood (joking, kinda).

Hey!

elliottwlee04 — 2025-10-06 15:44:21 UTC

My name is Elliott Lee, and I am a current senior here at UO! I am studying the great art of advertising, focusing on creative campaign strategy and design. I pair my creativity with two minors, sports business and art and technology. Where do I see myself in five years? Hopefully not in my mom's basement, sweating another Toronto Blue Jays season. In all seriousness, I hope to be an art director one day! My Uncle and Aunt both worked at the Ghetti and Ghetti Villa in Los Angeles and Malibu, and have insired myself and my sister to be "unorthodox" thinkers and believers. Anyway, that's a little background on my career focus and academic focus.

Something I am Proud Of

This past summer, I participated in the Global Career Accelerator. I learned a plethora of professional soft skills and earned a couple of hard skill certicates (UI/UX prototype, AI professional skills, coding, using semrush, etc.) This project here is one I am particularly proud of. Intel is a company I follow regularly due to its interest in green and clean energy. So when I got to do a project on them, I wanted to treat it like I was working for them. At first I thought I did an awful job and that my presentation did not make any sense. But then I ended up being selected to present in front of my entire class. Which was awesome, but terrifying.
