AND AGELESS
AND MULTICULTURAL
It’s important that we stop seeing concepts as linear, black & white or systematic. The next BIG IDEA can come from anyone and anywhere. The next movement will be a force unexpected and powerful! BIG IDEAS have been generated out of failures, mishaps & misdirection. The important point is to grow from the mid-step and become powerful enough to benefit all!
BIG IDEAS
A Big Idea refers to core concepts, principles, theories, and processes that should serve as the focal point of curricula, instruction, and assessment.... A focus on these larger ideas helps people to see the purpose and relevance of content.
I have always been focused on NEW CONCEPTS and BIG IDEAS! As a Designer, Artist and Conceptual Believer, I bring culture, movement and empowerment to create FUTURE GROWTH!
