My motivation comes from a love of being creative. I'm in love with music and colour and laughter and dancing and all things that are beautiful.

American culture is one that is so easily in denial. We have such a strange dichotomy, so hypocritical. The truth can be blaring in neon letters but our culture will find a reason not to hear what the truth is.

If you have goals and the stick-with-it-ness to make things happen, people will feel threatened by you, especially if your goals don’t include them.

In truth, there is unlimited pie for everyone!
