Honestly, it’s painting. I love painting, but these days I don’t paint as often as I’d like. Most of my client work requires adjustments, and it makes more sense to work digitally. But when I have the time, I love to put on a favorite podcast and paint for hours. Read more>>

Going to sleep. Theirs is a mysterious strange unexplained phenomenon occurring where people are going to sleep and not returning. They are simply what they call; “ Passing Away “ For example. When someone is having a surgery, they’re told they’re going to be put to sleep and monitored in order to bring them back. Read more>>

This is a fantastic question. For myself, being in the studio creating music, writing a tv or film project treatment, or diving into writing a script and bringing characters to life is definitely a time warp. So many things in life try and take us away from creating or pursuing our passion. Read more>>

All I feel is the rhythm of the plane, the focus of flying, and this incredible freedom that fills me. Up there, I feel like a bird. Weightless. Free. Read more>>

I volunteer my time to do at least one beach clean up a week at my local beach and it’s something I really enjoy doing. I definitely lose track of time when I’m out cleaning the beach. It’s time that my dad and I get to spend together and I know I’m making a difference to help the environment. Read more>>

What makes me lose track of time is when I get that spark of creativity—whether it comes while I’m working on something or from a new idea that inspires me. I dive into studying, creating, and exploring, and before I know it, it’s already late at night. This usually happens at the end of the day when I finally have time to immerse myself. Read more>>

When I reflect on the parts of me that have shaped my journey, I see how each has carried me to where I am today. My creativity has allowed me to express myself and connect deeply with others. My resilience has kept me moving through doubts, setbacks, and challenges that could have stopped me. Read more>>
