I believe my purpose in life is to help others, and to change perspectives; as a an actor and film creator I achieve it through my craft.

Any art that creates emotional engagement and connection between people, art that generates positive change and an impact that leads the audience to reflect, become and build a better tomorrow. I enjoy different visual forms, I am very into immersive creations, and I want to focus my art on the human experience. The purpose behind my art is always intended for the wellness of others, to inspire and to lift people to the best version of themselves, to cross impossible out of their vocabulary.
Where do you find inspiration?Life and living it. A lot of my inspiration tends to come on simple observation of everyday life; cultures, languages, foods, colors, stories, feelings, communication, the small details- anything that can socially influence people and questioning all its multiple phases & sides. I’ve always been a curios person; creative, quick. I like to carefully listen and pay attention to community consensus to be able to translate into art what words cannot. I believe art is never about me, its for others.
What would you do with $25,000?There is so much I could do; some would go to my family (my biggest supporters), some would go to investing it to ensure I can keep creating more art and stability in my life; I’ve always had the goal that when I become wealthy enough to live a rich life, and I don’t mean that only financially, that I want to keep my purpose alive and create spaces where I can help people change their lives through art, through mental health programs, through simply having a humane space for others to thrive.
