On being recognized by the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards, Shanker said, “I’m very happy about winning a Gold Key award. I’m so proud of myself. All of my hard work has paid off. It makes me feel really good because I also was awarded multiple Gold Key Awards throughout my four years of high school. Knowing that I was part of the 1% out of thousands and thousands of submissions, I feel very grateful, and maybe it’s giving me the boost of confidence I need to continue artwork.”
