Foundation

I didn’t know it was possible to feel so wrong doing what felt so right. Or to feel like your best just wasn’t going to cut it.

Welcome to foundation year! The most overwhelming and rewarding year of my life.

I now know the hours and location of every hardware and art store in NYC, my dreams are in simultaneous contrast, and I realize my hard drive crashing doesn’t mean the world as I know it is coming to an end.

Coming to Parsons was the best decision of my life.

My whole life I was a solid 89% never bad but never the best. Then I came to Parsons. 3000 miles from home and my life as I knew it changed forever. Everything felt wrong but for once school felt so right. Love isn’t a powerful enough word to describe my enjoyment. It was an obsession. I was obsessed with learning. I was obsessed with school.

For the first time in my life I was going above and beyond what teachers expected but at the same time it never felt like work.

I have a special connection with every piece as they all were a huge time investment and represent many Saturday nights in the lab or dance classes I skipped.
