Recently I had a creative breakthrough that is really carrying me lately.

M U S I C

I know, I know. It’s not a very profound realization, however, I kinda forgot how much music has driven my creative impulses over the years. I got into a-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l of this largely because of music… shooting video and editing it to music. Making photos of nights revolving around music. Music drove everything!

I’m fortunate that I’ve found my own creative voice over the years but lately very much feel like I’m at a crossroads of sorts, both for personal and environmental reasons. Music has both helped keep me on course and inspired me to explore new paths. This year will surely be a defining one for me in a number of ways, but I’m fortunate to have rediscovered my love of music to help me navigate it.
