OH LOOK, IT’S ME!
“the sun loved the moon so much
that he died every night to let her breathe”.
That resonated with me, although a tad extreme, because that’s how much I love everyone around me. Whether you’re my best friend, a person I smile at as I walk down the streets of D.C., or a person I have yet to meet, I am a firm believer in doing whatever it takes to bring a smile to someone’s face and embrace them with all the love in my heart through my actions.
I’ve always considered myself as someone who is connected to everyone around me. I view every fiber of my being as a reflection of each and every person I meet. That being said, I like to think
“I breathe the air of thousands
and with it fill my lungs with the amalgamation of their joy, sorrow, passion, and pain with my own in an interminable synergy” (i wrote this in a poem btw teehee).
It is in this way that I utilize my work, both design and otherwise, as an avenue for shaping the world around me to celebrate all diverse communities. Putting the voices of people first in my work, people who are accustomed to being pushed to the sidelines and ignored by the rest of the world, is the greatest act of love I can give.
An act I deem just as beautiful as the moon.
