In 2021, I answered a long-silent call within me—the desire to create. It began with colors: letting them clash, collide, move, and flow side by side. The more I immersed myself in the process, the more I became lost in a world of boundless exploration. I discovered that I had been holding back, denying the inner tug to take a chance, to embrace freedom, to get gloriously messy. I realized something beautiful: I don’t need to know what the end will look like, because the real magic happens in the adventure of the 'in between.'

This journey has been all about taking a plunge—a leap into the unknown, into a new world of exploration:

A plunge into discovering my artist voice.

A plunge into building new connections and finding my creative community.

A plunge into recognizing my worth in simply being—giving and receiving.

A plunge into vulnerability, visibility, and courage to take risks.

A plunge into unfamiliar territory, like stepping into a foreign land where I don’t know the language or the cultural rules.

And so, here I go, stepping boldly into this adventure of creativity and transformation.
