In this episode, I unpacks why TikTok feels like a game-changer, how it stacks up against Instagram, and what this shift could mean for the future of the creator economy.

In this very first episode of Blur and Grain, I’m letting you in on my story. From my first steps into photography and starting a business, to navigating the world of marketing in ministry and business, I share how creativity became more than a skill—it became my passion and calling. Whether you're a creative, a strategist, or someone figuring out your voice, I hope my journey encourages you to discover the beauty in your process!
