  Let’s build something meaningful together
  whether it’s a mural, a creative framework, or a program for Hawai‘i’s next generation of artists.
  ‍
  I still have hard days. I still worry sometimes. But now I move forward knowing:
  ‍My value isn’t just in what I do, it’s in the way I create space, story, and safety for others.
  ‍
  
  To You, If You’ve Ever Felt the Same
  If you’re an artist, a healer, or someone building quietly through pain, I see you.
  You don’t have to prove your worth to everyone.
  But you do deserve to honor it.
  Let this ecosystem be a reminder that:
  Your healing is not a weakness, it’s part of your magic.
  Your story matters.
  And you can build something powerful, even while still finding your way.
  
  Mahalo for being here.
