“It started to grow harder to be alone, I didn’t recognize myself without others around. I fell into a deep depression and realized quickly no one wanted to be around me when I was not like them.⁠

I stepped into a free space the summer of 2014. I found myself breathing and growing without the ‘wait’ of the world on my shoulders. Every summer I seek that same freedom and surround myself with thoughtful minds. ⁠

Now, I work to reflect my own positivity at others. I no longer look to others to define my own self-worth.”⁠
