I would say the time when I was very sick as a child and how I stay strong, and always stay positive regardless of the circumstances.

My Bio
I developed a passion for Arts at a very early age. I started experimenting with oil painting at the tender age of seven and loved how it made me feel inside. Painting became my very comfort zone and refuge. I felt so fulfilled that I created something that was not there before. Through my vision and ideas I was able to give shape to abstract concepts and share my work with others to appreciate.
The greatest moment of my life as an artist was when I met Oprah Winfrey. I have given her one of my beautiful pieces I labeled "Am Every Women” for being so generous to underprivileged children. At 19, I began to foster the idea of creating a cartoon character for children that I would call Fleezy and eventually an animated TV & book series "The Adventures of Fleezy" would follow. The vision became so intense that it didn’t take me long to start drafting a script and sketch different moves about each character on the story line. I then called a friend of mine to help me perfect the sketches. That precious help slipped away when he injured his back. I was living in Dallas, Texas back then.
In November of 1997 I relocated from Dallas, Texas to Phoenix, Arizona. That move slowed down my drive and energy a little, but a dream never goes away. The project was constantly on my mind, hence the character "Fleezy" became the object of my obsession. My smartest move was to register for Digital animation training at the University of Advancing Technology to become a better artist. I was so excited! I developed better skills, perfected my craft, and Fleezy became fully alive. Now I am inviting talented people, investors, visionaries, and all of you who endear all the values inspired by the story to join me in making a success of this project. I didn’t give up on my dream and I hope my story will teach this generation to do the same. “The Adventures of Fleezy" will become a household name, a TV series for children to enjoy every Saturday morning or as part of after school entertainment.What are some things you're doing to help make this film?
