To create is dancing with the infinite; My Demons, my healing, my passion, my pain, my God, and my grace all at once. My soul spilled out.

I was raised a musician, my father is a band director.I was playing trumpet from age 5. I saw WICKED in Chicago with my Mother (Radio DJ) as her free from cancer celebration. I was convinced that I would be the next Alphaba so I began to sing constantly. I began to write poetry as well. To this day have over 400 poems to publish. I sing, play many instruments, write poetry, am a painter, actor in life, dancer, muralist and a Tattooer. All of these are my favorite way to create. I breathe Art
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration all around me. I always say I could be inspired by a leaf or a gust of wind. I do specialize in lineage and cultural studies alongside my art. My tattooing business is primarily rooted in the studies of culture and one’s lineage. I’m inspired by old worlds, astrology, mythology, lore, and all things weird. For painting I try my best to reflect the world and my inner world. As for poetry and song writing ? Lived experiences. Truth and reverance in my word.The world is limitless
What would you do with $25,000?There are so many ways I would benefit from a financial blessing. To list a few I could: -fix my car up or get a newer (beater) to last me. - pay off my medical debt - support my artistry in music and poetry production as well as help me open an online platform where my art can be ethically and sustainably produced for prints and home goods. - potentially help fund a unique retreat tattooing space meant for lineage healing, sustainability and tradition to be honored in its full integrity.
