Art is a big part of my life. I find art in the color of fall leaves and the lyrics in music. What inspires me to create art the most is my pain. Being here in Shakopee has been full of pain and my creativity is sentient!

I see myself as vulnerable and emotional. These two things were things I never wanted to be but the more mature I got, the more I love and accept. I want to be seen for the good (light) in me and not judged for the darkness that dwells inside too. Voting for same sex marriages informed a form of equality. Marching for George Floyd informed me of a right to exist. Being incarcerated informed me that all of us are vulnerable with emotions of sameness.
