Artist Statment



As an artist and a media maker, I am fascinated by the different mediums that can be used for expression. Being able to create art and precious moments while having the tools to document and share them is a powerful element in being a positive influence to the world that we live in. The progression of technology has given our society a new spin on the way our generation can create and share their works while constantly absorbing art and media that we are continuously scanning. I want to be a part of shaping the new platforms that our society depends on that so deeply influence the world we live in. My curiosities lie within the realm of theater and media; ranging from acting, singing, lighting design and costume design to web design, game design and animation. I want to be able to use these tools to create works that excite and inspire people in order to generate a spark to shape our society to make our world a better place. Being a performer has given me the appreciation for seeing every situation in a new light. My goal is to use my expressions to help people understand that every moment has meaning and that it is extremely important to appreciate how precious life is. We live in a world where stress and work pile on top of the life that we would rather be living; we tend to overlook what really matters to us because we get so swept up. I don’t want to create media that makes people zone out, I want to create works that engage and inspire people to be better versions of them. I have yet to figure out what medium I want to do this with. For the time being, I am exploring and learning new forms of expression to expand my knowledge in order to create pathways for new opportunities.
