Community murals are not just about painting walls; they're about telling stories, fostering a sense of belonging, and leaving a lasting mark of creativity on neighborhoods.

Through art, I learned to set achievable goals for myself. Whether it was completing a painting or mastering a new technique, these small milestones motivated me to keep going, not only in my art but also in other aspects of life.

For the longest time, I never thought of myself as an artist. I had a pretty different life plan in mind.
