What is your favorite type of art to create? I love creating art in many forms—from music and music videos to short films that inspire, heal, and tell real stories. I create to make people feel something powerful.
Where do you find inspiration?From life, heartbreak, faith, survival, and dreams. I’m inspired by every challenge I overcame and by people who keep going no matter what obstacles they face. I’m also inspired by artists like Adam Sandler, Karol G, Nicky Jam, and Angelina Jolie, who turned their talent into something powerful and inspiring.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use $5,000 to create a nonprofit in Colombia to help and inspire low-income youth. The other $20,000 I would invest in my artistic growth, building my brand, creating music, visuals, and opportunities to inspire others.
