I try to stay on top of my game physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Watching the news inspires me to keep going and reminds me why I should never complain. I'm inspired by those who don't let others define them: Martin Luther King Jr., James Dean, Vincent Van Gogh, Hillary Clinton, Tennessee Williams, director Steve McQueen. They've all changed the conversation by making their voices heard.

I have great friends. That's key for me for: surrounding myself with people who are supportive and kind.

I don't buy into the word "failure." I used to but not anymore. Trying not to fail is the opposite of art.

I try to stay on top of my game physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Failure assumes the world is black and white - no gray. I've come to find, it's all gray.
