My fascination to create as a child began as a family talent more than a hobby. Being able to provide visual interpretations for friends and family was my way of communicating and quickly gaining acceptance, which was essential to being a “military brat.” During my childhood, I practiced my craft, honing in on what I loved most about art: Communication. As I grew in my skill, I came to the realization that in order to be a distinct artist one must have his own style; it was during that time I began redirecting the purpose of my art to be a voice for people who didn’t have one.
