My own journey has been shaped by years of perseverance and countless challenges. Those experiences have taught me that artists and the creative communities they serve deserve to be supported by people who genuinely understand the artistic process—not simply as administrators, but as professionals with real knowledge, experience, and respect for the arts.
I strongly believe that institutions, foundations, and organizations responsible for developing and promoting the arts should place qualified arts professionals and experienced artists at the heart of their leadership. When those who guide the arts truly understand the discipline, the struggles, and the aspirations of artists, they are better equipped to create meaningful opportunities, make informed decisions, and build stronger creative communities.
