I love to create because it makes my soul happy. Creating is always been a passion of mine whether I was preforming it or capturing it!

My favorite type of art is videography. Though I do photography, I feel that videography just captures all the “what if’s”. Since I was young I have always loved films & books. The unspoken things, the spoken, the forgotten, the hurt, all topics. When I decided to pursue my dream, I knew that it would be scary, but isn’t that what film does? Bring out the scary to make something great or good? I hope to share my talents and convey my art that can be universally translated.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from people. We come from all walks of life. The great moments, but most importantly small moments, are what helps and teach us. We are human and faults, lost and broken moments are what make us the way we are. In a world of ever changing circumstances, we always hold true to what we know best; human nature. Human decisions that allow us to either move forward or keep stumbling us. There’s is so much beauty in what life can offer us.
What would you do with $25,000?I would pay back my debts, and then pursue my dreams further. There are were and are so may opportunities that I have been given to pursue my dreams. I would love to pay them back and then make them proud by then pursing them. If I had any money left i would find ways to give it back to my community. It is the people who make us, and sometimes breaks us in order to be where we are now and in the future.
