The experiences I’ve had and skills I developed growing up in the urban city Paterson, NJ were more beneficial to my success than those I acquired through an Ivy League school and 8+ years as a management consultant working for Fortune 500 clients. As an artist, my innate creativity, especially with people, was honed through my personal development as I was forced to constantly problem solve with limited resources in order to enter and thrive in a “white collar” environment.  This, for me -- is easy. I am easy.
