It’s an escape for me. Let’s me truly be myself and not accept less. Allows me to express myself and not be afraid of failure.

Photography, drawing, sketching. Landscape photography and nature are some of my favorite types of art to create.
Where do you find inspiration?Watching people travel and photograph what they see really inspired me to do the same. Showing people what I see through my vision and style really allows me to share who I am as a person and what I value.
What would you do with $25,000?Would set me for a career that I want to do and invest in myself in a way I’m not able to do right now. Possibly do the same for someone else in the future.
