I'm Rustum "Rust" Rivera. I discovered may talent as an artist when I was in grade school. My hobbies includes drawing, photography, crafts, DIY renos, travelling, cooking, and many more. I joined the Navy when I was 19 and transitioned out 20 years after. I had multiple titles and jobs when I was in the active duty. I was an engineer and a maintenance petty officer in the ship's auxiliary division; a watch captain, jack-of-the-dust, and a cook in the food service department; a lithographer and designer with the executive department; and finally, a mass communicator as a photographer, illustrator, journalist, web designer, and public affairs officer in the operations department. I retired after 20 years and became a graphic artist under contract with the government then finally, a visual information specialist working for the government.
