  Adobe Illustrator for Beginners: Get Started in 10 Minutes In this first video I learned about what Adobe Illustrator is and some tools. I learned you need to press the letter 'm' to select the rectangle tool. Once you get the rectangle tool you can just click and drag to get the size you want or you can just click and type in the exact size you want.

Hi, I am Olivia Schultz. I am currently a Freshman at University of Tampa. I am originally from Wayzata, Minnesota a town located on Lake Minnetonka. Being so close to the lake, I love to go tubing, jet skiing, wake surfing, and swimming. I am always down to do something and am always doing fun activities with friends like working out, going out to dinner, and going to the beach.
