Art allows me to reveal the world as I see it, the beauty of the earth God placed me upon, and through it, I can reflect and glorify Him.

I love traditional art, but I also carry a deep love for nature through photography. I’m drawn to wildlife, mountains, valleys, rivers, all the quiet beauty this world has to offer. I often end up hiking to capture these moments. Urban places have never called to me in the same way, but I’m slowly beginning to see their beauty too.
Where do you find inspiration?I find much of my inspiration within my family and friends. My uncle is an incredible photographer, and I grew up in awe of his work. Whether he was capturing family moments, animals on the farm, the stillness of nature, or even simple senior photos, his eye for photography stirred something in me, a desire to grow, to see more, and to become better in my own work.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000, I would invest it into my future with intention and care. As a young adult, nearly 19, I recognize what a rare and meaningful opportunity that kind of money is. I would use it to support my education, reduce future financial burdens, and also give back to my family in ways that matter. It would truly be a blessing, one that I would steward wisely and use to build a strong foundation for what lies ahead.
