"Art as a career is a brave choice for me. As the youngest child of older Caribbean parents, art was seen as a hobby rather than a vocation. They stressed the importance of stability— to them— that only came with the professions: accountant, doctor, nurse, or teacher. I am the first in my family to choose a different route. It is up to me to dispel the stereotypical “starving artist” trope. My journey— as a creative multi-hyphenate— has been a tough one of having to continuously prove myself as steadfast and dedicated to my dreams. Although it is a brave choice, art is the path for me and I have proven this to my family.”
