"It’s important to constantly hone your craft because after some time, you just get rusty and you get stale. It’s so important to remind yourself of the different things that are required of you."

"I am looking forward to now getting people into the culture of coming to the theatre just through my influence and it’s going to be fun."

"Do work that really motivates you to be a better artist. Do stuff that inspires you. That mainly comes with creating your own work. Create your own content. Tell your story because that is what everyone is doing."

"Share your own life experiences through your art form but don’t just do things because of money. There is value in saying no to a job that you know won’t be great for you because it is highly stressful but the pay is good."

"My work forces me to be arware of my evolution. It allows me to embrace my flaws and improve. Staying in touch with my inner child and healing her too."

"I love watching my unique ideas come to life sonically. It's like birthing a baby each time. It can be painful and beautiful all in the same breath."

"Teachers are the real mothers and nurturers of society."

"I also learned to hold space for others without taking on their stuff."

"To tell stories that are meaningful and impactful, one has to believe in them and be purposeful and intentional in their creation."

"To every young creative on the rise now, my advice to us all is that as technology advances, advance with it. The internet is a huge tool in an actor’s toolbox, so be intentional about how you use it!"

"You have to make sure that all of you is reaching out and touching all of the audience in the theatre. With theatre you want to create an experience for people."

"Actors are people too! It’s important for us to take a break."

"My intention is to use my gifts and skill sets to empower and enlighten mankind through art. It is also to expand myself by getting out of my comfort zone as an artist. I join projects I believe will break the mould in some kind of way. Or those that excite me."

"Any story that’s offered to me that doesn’t align with my value system and that won’t challenge me I won’t do."

"One of the most challenging things about the industry is getting your foot in the door and maintaining that upward momentum."

"I was born for this; I don’t care how cliché that may sound but I am a natural storyteller. There are many different forms of storytelling that I’ve now ventured into but this is who I am and I’m proud to be a vessel of God, used as a mirror to reflect the human condition to mankind."
