Being Honored.....But Still Humbled



It is always a humbling experience when you find that the very things that fuel your passion are things that people wish to acknowledge and support as well as honor.  I have been working with youth and non profits since the age of 14.  I am 24 (soon to be 25) and in 10 years I've had the amazing priviledge to see some of the most amazing youth grow and develop their talents in the arts. 

Art Share Los Angeles has been on of those places that will forever be etched into my heart and has become a staple in the legacy that I wish to leave behind when I leave this world.  Studenst like David, Robert, Enrique, Rocio, Jennifer, Gaby, Evelyn, Rene & Abel, just to name a few, are the reasons why I do what I do.


Every so often you are blessed by someone else that wishes to
acknowledge your work.  The Life Through Arts Foundation wishes to do just that.  During their 6th annual Red Party Fundraiser, they will be Honoring Me for my contribution to Art Education and Youth Involvement.  Tickets are $75 and I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see some familiar faces as I except this award.  For more Info & to purchase Tickets please visit http://www.ltaf.org/

Although I am recieving this award, I accept it on behalf of ALL my students, because without them this award wouldn't be possible.



In addition to all of this I will be a featured artist during Art Share LA's Valentine's Day Fundraiser.  Tony White & The Tony White Quartet will be spreading the rhythms of Jazz and romance and they will be featuring me to help spread the love. 

Tickets are $20 w/RSVP and $25 @ the door.  For more information on this event please visit http://www.artsharela.org/


Once again I thank you ALL for your continued support!!!!!
