On Timing, Collisions, and Knowing When to Step Forward
I have licked my wounds more than once.
Some chapters bruised me.
Some humbled me.
Some forced me to sit still long enough to understand what they were trying to teach me. I have learned that timing is not about urgency. It’s about discernment. About opportunity colliding at the right moment. Knowing when to move, when to speak, when to step back, when to realign, and when to see the exit sign and let the dust settle.
Much of my career unfolded in overlapping ways, sometimes quietly, sometimes colliding loudly. Different roles, ventures, and seasons crossing into each other like bumper cars. Fashion crashing into interiors. Hospitality intersecting with operations. Private work bleeding into public moments. Nothing linear. Nothing clean. Just experience stacking on top of experience, sometimes gracefully, sometimes not.
I am a storyteller by nature. A visual artist. A curator. A bespoke concierge and hospitality gatekeeper who understands what it means to protect access, manage energy, and execute with intention. Those identities were not assigned to me. They were earned through repetition, pressure, and proximity to environments where standards are non negotiable. I have built ventures that succeeded. I have closed chapters that no longer fit. I have watched ideas fail in real time and learned how to stand back up without losing myself in the process. None of it was quiet internally, even when it appeared composed on the outside.
There were moments when life intervened and forced stillness. Moments that demanded honesty about where I had been overextending, shrinking, or staying out of comfort rather than alignment. Those pauses were not setbacks. They were recalibrations. They brought clarity. What you see now is not a reinvention. It is a continuation shaped by years of lived experience, personal investment, creative instinct, and real world execution.
Experience teaches what no résumé ever can. It teaches judgment. It teaches when to step forward and when to step aside. It teaches you how to recognize the moment, how to read the room, and how to know when the exit sign is already flashing without needing to be told.
That awareness comes from time. From repetition. From being close enough to the work to understand timing, calculation, and precision in environments where consequences are real.
This is where I am now.
Not arriving.
Not announcing.
Just operating from a place of real confidence. Of earned confidence.
Good bye 2025 and WELCOME 2026…I am ready for ya!
