Bold PointsBio
As a more mature student, I find myself having a strong sense of the direction I am going. I took a few years off of my undergraduate career to better understand myself, my place in this world and what I have to offer. I feel as though I have been given a second chance.
I now see myself as Adanna, The Teacher. Adanna, The Artist. Adanna, The Art-trepreneur.
With this solid foundation within me, I know that I can accomplish anything I set my mind to. I desire to inspire the youth. More specifically, to serve unprivileged communities by giving them safe and constructive spaces to express themselves and develop a strong identity. I see myself impacting lives, starting with my own hometown of Baltimore, MD. There is much work to be done and I see myself contributing a great deal of assistance in healing these communities that have such talent, culture and power. All they need is an opportunity to attain resources and a chance. I hope to achieve giving these young people these opportunities by first, achieving my own professional goals. I am a senior at Towson University, studying Fine Arts. I plan to apply to Maryland Institute College of Art for the Art Education MAT program. With these degrees, many doors will open for me, thus leading me to make a way for young artists working to make change within themselves and the world.

My everything is my will. My will to continue persevering though I have met strife. My will to show love though I have been hurt before. My will to be my SELF! Owing who I am, without shame, guilt or insecurity has become my superpower. It has kept me safe, carried me though and proves to me that there is a higher power. I channel this will, this energy from that source and allow it to carry me. I am driven by what is within me and am perpetually inspired by seeing that same light shine within others. Will is divine discipline that can take individuals higher in mind and deeper at heart.
