Who inspires you, and why?
I have various inspirations in different fields. Creatively, my top inspirations are Virgil Abloh, Ye, David Bowie, and John Hughes.
Overall, my greatest inspiration in life is God - for obvious reasons. My friends and family also inspire me daily.
What's your main life goal?
To leave the world a better place than it was when I got here.
In your opinion, is life fair?
Unfortunately, no. But it's important not to dwell on the disadvantages we may have. A lot of times, our disadvantages can actually become our advantages in life. It's important to deploy optimism.
Of course. So what's the greatest reward in life?
Making a positive difference in someone else's life.
There's nothing better than genuinely helping, inspiring, or bringing joy to someone.
If you were God, what is the one thing you would change right now?
I don't like to play God, but I guess the one thing I would change would be to end suffering amongst those most vulnerable.
What's your biggest challenge in life, and how do you overcome it?
The biggest challenge I've dealt with is the fear of other people's perceptions of me.
I'm still in the process of overcoming it but the #1 thing is to deploy humility; realizing that nobody really cares and if they do care enough to judge you negatively, then you should be praying for their healing.
Finally, what is your greatest life advice?
The greatest advice I can give is to live "on purpose"; meaning, you have to identify the purpose God gave you and act on it. In return, the world will benefit because everything you do will automatically serve others.
