I believe digesting our contradictions is the most direct way to create anything more beautiful, from self to society. The alchemy of transmuting seemingly disorganized tension into a moment of emotional clarity is the foundation of my creative process.
I have been shaped by hoops, hip-hop, snowboarding and surfing. I have found myself in teamwork, early mornings, the lessons of nature, and the beautiful aftermath of facing fears.
My ideas and writing feel good when they represent the most honest parts of myself and of those whose stories I tell.
I’m uninterested in indifference. Creativity is an incredibly honest endeavor that I can’t get enough of, nor can I pursue it to its fullest alone.
