🤝 

The mission is to connect creatives to people/places where they can use their gifts to inspire others. Over the years I’ve carried that out in different ways. Whether it was helping put on events, getting an artist a gig or two, connecting like-minded individuals who would eventually collaborate on projects, help plan and talk through strategies for new ideas, etc. 

I’ve always been a connector of sorts. It’s what I’ve watched my family do in ministry and it’s what I’ve done in my professional career in Human Resources. I’ve always tried to see the best in others. I encourage them and nudge them to walk on the path of their purpose by helping them recognize their God given gifts.

I have learned a lot about myself and others. I have gained and lost friends. I have seen success and I have seen failure. 

But one thing I haven’t done is give up on the idea that when I believe in someone, I want to see them win and for God to bless them.

And that brings me to an exciting, first of many, collaboration with my friend and Artist Creative, Kelly Cruz of @kingandfolkco.

While she wears many hats like pastor’s kid, sister, aunt, military wife, mother of 3; this soft-spoken, Master’s Degree holding young woman is also a talented UNYC artist! I’m honored and grateful that she has allowed me to work on this with her. 

Give her a follow and check out her amazing work! We are excited to get this piece out to you all!
