I love creating music at the piano—original compositions that blend emotion, faith, and storytelling. I also paint abstract pieces that express movement, spirit, and inner landscapes. Digital art and sharing them for free to anyone and everyone that the Lord prompts me when I open their page or see what they share. Both allow me to translate what I feel and discern into something others can experience, whether through sound or visual acrylic and or digital form.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in prayer, Scripture, and quiet moments with God. It also comes through everyday life—people, emotions, struggles, and beauty in the ordinary. Music, memories, and even silence guide me. I believe inspiration is always present when the heart is open and listening.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest in producing and sharing my original music and art—recording songs, improving my creative setup, and building a platform to reach and uplift others. A portion would support faith-based and community initiatives. My goal is to create work that inspires, heals, and brings people closer to God.
