Statement:
These snapshot narratives attempt to illustrate the story of an individual's struggle to fit into a world that is at once lovely and hideous. They attempt to illustrate an internal, dichotomous marriage between a growing sense of helplessness with regard to affecting positive change, and the intense desire to find peace and happiness within our space.
I try to create likeable, underdog characters; characters you want to see persevere and succeed against the odds.
