In life, the World can present a bountiful kaleidoscope of opportunities to enhance and direct an individual’s decision in determining their potential “path.” If, upon realization and circumstance, an opportunity arises that could fuel not only the passion of one’s own desires and personal achievement, but a chance to enrich the lives of others through community connection and fulfillment, then the opportunity must be seized and nurtured. I’ve decided to start making the best of every opportunity that comes my way….maybe I’ll gain a little direction, guidance and check off a few items on the bucket list along the way.
Throughout my life, I have faced many challenges and encountered numerous opportunities and people who have been instrumental in shaping my life. I have worked hard for everything that I have and all of these experiences keep me light hearted and eager to learn about the world around me.
I always keep my camera on hand, capturing the pain and beauty of everyday life, preserving moments in time to share my experiences with others and send a message that financial hardships should not affect your education or hold you back from achieving your dreams. I want to give others the courage to make something of themselves. Dreams do not have an expiration date. I intend to freeze not only the brilliant and shining moments that inspire and encourage the great qualities of community living and involvement, but also capture the real life trials and tribulations that inevitably will be faced by the community in the form of hardship and tragedy, where compassion and faith of heroic individuals can band together to overcome all adversity for the sake of the common good. Through my photography, I hope to create a real life forum depicting a sense of connection and belonging to the World where everyday existence is a source of ownership, pride, and enduring relationships.
By fusing my natural abilities and knowledge I pick up along the way I hope that one day I will become a beacon of hope and enlightenment for not only myself but for the people around me.
