Because art is a language. Art helps me express the things that I can’t speak out loud. Art gives that comfort and calm during a storm.

My favorite type of art to create is probably photography. The moments you can capture in one single photograph is truly unique. Each photograph tells a story and each photograph expresses something new. Photography is special because each photograph speaks to someone in a different way. It photograph giving you a view into something different.
Where do you find inspiration?One inspiration is nature. I personally think nature is one of the most amazing gifts we can experience. The world right now is filled with chaos and not many people just take a breath and acknowledge the beauty around us. To be able to capture this gift and show the beauty of the world is the most rewarding. Another inspiration is capturing people doing things in their lives. We all come from different places to capture be able to give a glimpse into another life different from your own.
What would you do with $25,000?If I had $25,000 I would use it to travel to places that need medical volunteers and aid after a disaster. Whether that be a natural disaster or a human made disaster. There’s so much negativity in this world and being able to help and do something positive for others really gives me joy. This world is too hateful and I just want to make it more positive for everyone.
