I have been creating things since I can remember. I would make bracelets, play with paints and oil pastels, and coloring books were a fan favorite. my activities were never for a reason. They were always just because. I come from divorced parents so being an only child at my moms, I had to find ways to entertain myself and learn new things. The arts always called to me. In school, I didn't care much to be a scholar. teachers called me their "social butterfly" and I cared more about making dances for my friends and I than I did my schoolwork.
