“Far too many people think that conditions determine choices. More often, choices determine conditions. When you choose commitment, you give yourself a chance for success.” ~ John C. Maxwell

“Like many people, I have been through many trials and tribulations in my young life. However, it’s the circumstances I have overcame that I embrace and appreciate for shaping who I am today. Everything I have been through and have survived has made me stronger and has only increased my hunger and passion for doing what I love most, which is helping and impacting underprivileged communities in a positive way. I have received many rejections and have been doubted plenty of times but I have realized the most successful people in life have failed their way to success because they’ve learned from their failures and I am confident that I will be able to say the same in the near future.

I am in love with ideology and finding deep significance in the smallest details in life; I am, in essence, an abstract thinker. It is abstract ideas that I love bringing to life in my model photography. I model to step outside of the world I live in on a daily basis, to enter a new reality created by my own thoughts and it’s a reality I can share with the outside world. I believe art is my God-given vessel to share my passions with those who are willing to listen and take from it what they can. On the other hand, my spoken word is truly me pouring my heart and soul out in every aspect. I bleed the words that flow out of me; they’re more than mere words as they have the power to breathe passion and life into dead, weary souls. I love to educate through my spoken word as well, and I speak from my point of view. Everything I speak is real, whether it is something that has happened to me personally or if it’s simply me putting myself in someone else’s shoes to create a story depicting the reality of their world. I live in my artistry, whether it’s my modeling or my poetry, and my utmost desire is to share it with the world!”
