Open Eyes


I was born one month earlier. Some people say that’s because I’m always in a hurry. I say that’s because I’ve always been curious.

When you’re curious, you seek out. And that’s what I have always loved to do. My favorite part of everything has always been the middle, the courtship, the process, the seeking out, the means to an end. That’s where the fun happens; learning, observing, absorbing, connecting the dots and making something out of it. In another words, making ideas happen out of it.

Someone once asked me what animal I have a lot in common with and I picked fish. “Because I always have my eyes open and I could die for a snack”, I said. It’s true, my eyes always wonder and roam, searching for new experiences and emotions, for human truths, and big ideas.

I love to uncover new insights and use them to develop new ideas through different mediums such as paintings, short stories, movies and advertising. I believe you can find insights everywhere, especially in the shower and through random train conversations. A professor of mine once said, “If you are not excited about thinking of ideas during your morning shower, it’s probably time to quit your job”.

I live for the moments where ideas spark on my brain and spit out of my mouth.
