What is your favorite type of art to create?

My favorite art is storytelling through visuals. Through photography, I capture emotion, love, and resilience—freezing meaningful moments that reflect real life and deep connection. My work is inspired by personal experiences, especially my family, and often carries a cinematic, heartfelt feel. I also express creativity through crochet, designing colorful, handmade pieces that bring joy. Whether through my lens or my hands, I create with intention, emotion, and meaning.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration in my life, my family, and the emotions that shape my story. My dad’s strength, my role as a mother, and quiet everyday moments guide my creativity. I’m drawn to light, especially golden hour, and the way it transforms ordinary scenes into something meaningful. I focus on real emotion over perfection, capturing love, resilience, and connection. Even my crochet inspires me through color and texture, influencing the way I see and create through my lens.

What would you do with $25,000?

With $25,000, I would create stability for my family by paying off urgent needs and building a small safety net. I would support my dad and make meaningful memories together. I would invest in growing my photography business and expanding my crochet brand, creating opportunities for long-term success. Most importantly, I would use it with intention—balancing responsibility, creativity, and love, while building a future rooted in purpose and passion.
