Eleanor Tayam

Teacher, Designer, and Artist in Houston, Texas

Eleanor Tayam is a chihuahua mama, designer, and video game enthusiast.

Born and raised in Houston, TX, Eleanor is a mostly self taught designer and artist. Most of her experience comes from her dad, an IT professional, who sparked her interest in technology at a young age and brought home her first video game console. Eleanor gets her inspiration from her voracious reading habits, fellow artists and friends (online, IRL, etc), and the original creations that she tries to write down before she forgets.

Eleanor knows a little bit of everything: digital art, 3D Modeling, programming (Java, JavaScript, and Python!), some level designing, an interest in Unity3D, and working knowledge of 3D printing. She also builds her own computers, provides her own IT support, and even did some hours on PowerShell and some Active Directory training.

At the moment, she has taken interest in various non-digital crafts such as sewing and making crafts with her kids. Eleanor loves her chihuahua that steals her bed. On a cold day, you'll find her curled up in bed, shivering, with her Nintendo Switch playing puzzle games.
