The Artist's Oath
The Artist’s Oath is a personal commitment to how I show up creatively. It is a reminder to lead with integrity, to resist the pressure to perform, and to make work that reflects truth, not just what gets attention. It is a compass for navigating the tension between expression and permanence, and a way to stay rooted in what matters: presence, process, and purpose, not perfection.

Not My First Rodeo: Minting SuperRare Ghost Tokens

A semi-regular newsletter at the intersection of art, life, and tech. I write mainly to capture my own history of thought and progression, but I hope each one carries a kernel of usefulness for you too.

As an introvert, casual relationships can be tough for me to sustain.
Small talk and surface-level socializing feel draining without a deeper connection or shared activity to ground the interaction.
I’ve realized that I connect best when there’s real meaning behind the exchange—something more substantial than just keeping up appearances.
Without that, I find it hard to maintain these relationships, as they often lack the engagement I need to feel truly connected.
