What inspired your most recent tattoo?

My most recent tattoo is my “LOVED” piece, inspired by my journey through this universe so far. I’ve been fortunate enough to realize that love is all I need. The feeling is unmatched and I wouldn’t want it any other way. That being said, I truly believe in leading by example, so I choose to love freely. Because if we want to see real change in this world, it starts with us. And deep down, we already know that.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

If my ink could speak, if it could say anything beyond what it already does, it would whisper motivational phrases like “Big city. Bigger dreams.” or “From the subway to the skyline, keep moving up.” It would speak at just the right moments, reminding me that every block is a step toward greatness. That would be cool.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With $25,000, I’m looking to invest in my business ventures and put in the real work to make them thrive. Once I’ve built a solid foundation, my goal is to live a creatively fulfilling life while giving back especially in areas like mental health and child development. I’m aiming for a life that’s not just successful, but meaningful, one where I can make a genuine impact.
