Sonder was one of the first nuanced words I learned growing up. It was something my parents taught me as a way to appreciate everyone.

Well my most recent tattoo is my only tattoo, so as I said it was the first really complex word I learned. It helped me learn to appreciate every single person I meet, interact with and even just see, as their life is just as complex and meaningful as mine. I feel like that concept is just such a beautiful way to view the world.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?It would say to appreciate everyone. Everyone has value and everyone lives a life that they should be proud of. We are all our own person and we should acknowledge that every other person is their own person, and that’s what makes the concept of life and sentience so beautiful.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would get my dream tattoo before I can start my freshman season at New Mexico Highlands University, where I hope to win a national title and spread my message across the nation. I want every tattoo I get to be meaningful and have a purpose that is authentic to who I am as a man, and with this 25k I can do that and more. Whatever I have left I will donate as I don’t really feel it’s necessary to keep it as I am privileged enough to be in a position to even win this money.
