so bright 💚

23 years old. living the life i always envisaged 🥹🫀

since being made redundant from recruitment at the end of 2024, i have:

become a personal trainer.
built my business from the ground up.
become a full-time business owner.
bought & wrapped (one of) my dream cars.
been to 16 countries.
signed as a sports model last year.
started content creation last year & become sponsored by brands i could only dream of being part of.
modelled as part of TWO global campaigns for under armour & many more e-commerce shoots for other big sportswear brands.

& this is only the beginning. so much to be grateful for.. but it hasn’t come without hard work & long, long days working. i wouldn’t have it any other way ❤️

[ Haters would say it’s AI.]

And they’re absolutely right. ;-)
But here’s the thing.

AI can generate images.
Imagination creates possibilities.

Technology works with what already exists. Human imagination dares to go beyond it. To question boundaries, challenge conventions and envision what has never been before.

And that is exactly what my art is about.

UNCAGED.

The freedom to think differently.
The courage to break free from expectations.
The power to become who we truly are.

Whether through my original paintings or limited, hand-finished art editions, every piece carries the same idea:

Freedom begins within.

And in a world increasingly shaped by algorithms, expectations and predefined realities, the courage to remain ourselves may be our greatest creative power.

Because courage is more than the absence of fear.

Courage is love in action.

Stay curious. Stay courageous.
Stay UNCAGED.

Y.V.E.

If I'm honest, doing hair has been one of the most frustrating parts of my disability. I have tried to tie up my hair hundreds of times and failed but luckily I'm very stubborn and look where it's gotten me 🩷

What’s the largest number of suitcases you’ve brought on a trip?

#DovePartner After a full day of packing and moving, an everything shower with my Dove Beauty Bar was non-negotiable 🫧
