Every day I aspire to educate myself so that I can be the change I want to see in the world—to build a just environment and live a life of righteousness amidst the challenges of modern society. I am seeking to integrate design with social activism. I design to empower those that see themselves in my work, while at the same time educate the viewer. As I’ve come to know my personal values and identities, I’ve learned more about those who don’t share them. Through simple talking and listening I believe change can occur. This may not necessarily be a tangible change that you and I can see, but a spiritual one in their hearts and minds. I want my work to plant a seed in them, so that through their experiences and the spaces they frequent, this seed of truth and justice may grow. As a result, my efforts seek to create active and responsible leaders to thrive in a diverse world.
