This solstice, Iām celebrating 10 years since leaving a job in architecture to find my own path. So incredibly grateful to the friends, clients and creative community that have sustained me since, both in NYC and online. I am terrible at manifesting anything ā all I know is a little fissure of creativity that yields a bit when pulled, until things fall out and collide with those around me. Really itās an ocean that Iāll never fully explore or comprehend, and I am constantly overwhelmed by things Iād like to make, and I lean on collaborators to stay focused, grounded and fed. I dont think Iāve said no to a job or opportunity in those ten years (working on that), and am always willing to share whatever little wisdom Iāve gleaned along that journey with others. So, a little post sharing the randomness, hustle (and privilege!) of my journey so far šµāš«
