After A Decade Of Hard Work, Woman Lands Her Dream Job At Pixar And Goes Viral On Twitter
Chasing dreams takes time. In fact, all good things take time. The same goes for career aspirations—wanting something badly is, unfortunately, not enough to achieve what you want. It takes hard work, too. But this young woman sure knows a thing or two about persistence and focus—two things that make a perfect combination to act out your wildest, most incredible dreams. Once a young girl dreaming about animating for one of the biggest animation companies, today she stands proudly by the Pixar sign, sharing a glimpse of her first day at her dream job.

Janel Drewis is an animator based in Oakland, California. Back in 2009, the young woman had just started off her arts bachelor. Apparently, for Janel, working at Pixar Animation Studios was one of her major dreams. The same year, she posted a picture on Facebook where she was posing in front of the Pixar entrance sign and captioned the photo “One day!”

“I cried seeing this,” one woman writes. “Working for Disney/Pixar is my biggest dream since I was a child. Even though I’m no longer drawing like I used to (the struggle is called depression), I still dream about this. Thank you thank you thank you. Your tweet truly inspired me,” she finishes off her emotional comment.
And many others were congratulating the woman on her achievement
