I have countless stories about the days I have spent in my mother’s art studio
which we now share. Mostly these stories include laughing until we could barely breathe
and talking about plans for future projects. Other stories include my father smoking his
old tobacco pipe and teaching me life’s important virtues. With parents such as these I
have been granted the strength to design my future.
I have been graced with many talents but the one that speaks volumes to those
who surround me is my resilience. I was born and raised in a house of merchants, those
who create and work for what they accomplish. My parents are high school sweethearts
who give life to everything they touch as well as inspire those around them. My mother,
a fine artist and industrial designer has instilled in me the creative potential to
masterfully create things of extraordinary beauty. My father, an engineer and
businessman, has given me the gift of drive, and the constant desire to organize,
discover, and shape my life. My hope is that through furthering my education I will be
able to establish a clear sense of how I will continue my family’s legacy as one of passion,
creativity, and graciousness.
