I dedicated this website to my deceased father, who passed away unexpectedly in 2017. Among other aspiring qualities, my father was a talented writer and entrepreneur. His zest for life was inspiring. Dad was also a hard worker. He encouraged my family about the importance of developing our character. He taught us that life is about growing and becoming a better person. His untimely passing taught me the often-disregarded lesson that life is far too short. The scarcity of time motivated me to write and create.

My personal experiences and reflections inspired the articles on this website. The theme revolves around character building in art, leadership, and faith. I recently featured regular contributors who share the same vision in our day and age. 

I am also an emerging artist. My personal artwork is the second part to this website. I enjoy creating for beauty. I create religious, contemporary, and landscape art. I am delighted to share my recent pieces with you. If you’re interested, you can buy them. Please contact me.

My dad would often say, “It builds character.” May his gentle, affirming, and fun-loving presence influence you through these articles and art pieces. Whether the topic is about leadership, faith, or art, may you find something practical and beautiful here.
