In clarity, truth needs no defense.
There's a quiet in me that no rumor can reach.
Still, I know the noise comes from pain and pain, when left alone too long, becomes the only language some people know how to speak.
I've built my life and my work on reflection, creation, and empathy.
The world I move through in business, in art, and in presence is grounded in purpose, not performance. So when words are thrown like stones, I choose to build with them instead.
If you've ever turned that pain toward me, I forgive you. We're all learning how to feel safe again in a world that rarely feels kind.
If you or someone you love is struggling with heavy thoughts,
please reach out for help.
