I’m naturally a creative person, Bboying just happened to be the way I expressed it. And with how competitive the breakdancing landscape is, creativity eventually became a skill, which ultimately benefited me with opportunities to compete, judge competitions, host international dance events, and teach workshops around the world.
After i retired from competition, i created an online apparel brand. i didn't have any leads or know how to do it, so i did what any millennial would - watch youtube videos on how to start a business, build a website, open an online store, create designs, print products, market, sell, etc...
i came across ux by happenstance. to make a long story short, i found out what it was, noticed i already had tons of experience in the design process, and realized people made a living doing it. I decided right then and there to switch careers. it was the best decision of my life.
When I'm not focused on breaking, business, or UX, it's all about my family. though i don't always find it easy to express my true self often, I've created a family vlog that offers an authentic way to do so. It’s a space where I can stay creative, preserve memories, and constantly remind myself of what truly matters.
