Quotes

  • I always go back to the heart. A lot of it is about the small decisions of the heart that lead to the big issues.
  • I really love the idea of a space to self-learn and create an internal independence system of self-discipline outside of school bells and uniforms and stuff. I’m really into the idea of education being part of life.
