Responsible

It is easy for many to view the arts as something that should only be done as a hobby in today’s world of S.T.E.M. I say [bleep] EM. I took my training as seriously as anyone who must commit years of training to their chosen profession. Because of that, I feel that it is my responsibility to hold my training in high esteem. I feel it is my responsibility to be an ambassador of the power of the arts. I feel that it is my responsibility to eschew the negative feedback that the world throws at artists, and to help us stand tall in the valuable contributions we can and do make to the world. And most importantly, I feel that it is my responsibility to give back to people who want to rigorously develop their sense of artistry.
