Living in D.C. has given me the opportunity to reflect on my parent’s American dream and how I am a product of their love and hope. I want to contribute more to this world in order to honor the freedom that they have given me.
Freedom is to Live
Freedom can be defined differently by everyone. In a way, freedom is what makes you feel the most alive. Freedom is what you seek while living life, as a human being free makes you feel alive.
