Every piece that I make, from my proudest work to total disasters, are engrained with an intrinsic part of myself that can't be replicated.

I love being able to take on anything that seems like a new challenge, that will expand my abilities in new mediums and how I convey my perspective. I love messy, expressive paintings and pencil drawings that are still deliberate in every aspect.
Where do you find inspiration?My biggest motivation for creating is everyone around me. I love being able to share my work with the people I love most, as if I'm giving them a piece of myself. I get to illustrate what I love most about people and give it back to them. I draw from anything I see that makes me reflect on others or myself.
What would you do with $25,000?I would like to donate a portion of any money I earn, but most would go towards savings and my education and training in healthcare.
