ARTIST STATEMENT 2/14/11

I am passionate about the children and our future! The need to want to give an outlet to our inner view of true life's meaning and purpose is my motivation. The material the media exposes to such young minds frustrates me. I want to inspire the youth to be more then what society shows them that they can be. I intend to assist children and the youth to utilize and become more in tuned with their creative side. My motivations lie in the potential of a child and the expansion of our mind. My studies in cultural anthropology opened my eyes to wanting to help our outlook on life. I believe in a loving harmonious planet.

I first became intrigued in media through music. I later found amusement in editing, documentary filmmaking, and photography, which I intend to use as my medium. I enjoy traveling the world and gathering knowledge that contribute to the quest of my specific niche.  My constant admiration to media making is in the skills and techniques of storytelling. I want to make art that makes people smile, laugh, think, appreciate, act effectively, and give motivation to achieve. I intend to be extremely influential in the lives of the children, who are our future. I see myself helping the world- positively!
