My name is Alicen, and I'm returning to college after staying home with my kids for the last decade. They are 15 and 18, and I homeschooled them both up through 8th grade. Now that they both attend public high school, I have time to devote to starting a new career. I am working towards an AAS in Graphic Design at LBCC.

I'm enjoying experimenting, and photography is becoming my new favorite hobby.

Lexus Partners with Marvel's Eternals

This article on PR Newswire caught my eye because my family and I are big Marvel fans. We’re contemplating a group costume for Halloween, so ideas are welcome. I don’t want to paint myself green, or Gamora would be my first pick. Here’s the lowdown: Lexus has partnered with Marvel Studios in their new ad campaign. The Marvel film Eternals will open on November 5, and fans get an early look at one of the characters, a superhero named Kingo, in the two minute piece titled Parking Spot . Although the commercial features a superhero, he grapples with a very human problem. Kingo, played by Kumail Nanjiani, is searching for a safe place to park his new Lexus, although most of us don’t face this task while the serpentining through a war zone. In the article, Vinay Shahani, Lexus vice president of marketing, is quoted saying, "There's a natural synergy between Marvel Studios and Lexus. We both go all-in to deliver amazing experiences.” In another article on the Marketing Dive websi...
