a multidisciplinary artist, educator, and life coach, but I have a feeling you probably already figured that out.
So, who am I outside of the titles?
I’m a bright light. I have a personality full of life and enthusiasm. My laugh is loud and contagious. I’m courageous, bold, ambitious, and innovative. I strive to always be present as my authentic self and I challenge those around me to do the same. I’m a safe space.
Am I really so bold as to write such things about myself? Absolutely not. Truthfully, I asked my closest friends to tell me honestly what they thought of me and those are some of the beautiful words they responded with.
However, in true fashion to who I keep as friends I also got:
“When you think of otters, think of Tiffany. No, I will not offer further context.”
“Tiffany always let’s me be as weird and nerdy as I am without judgement.”
What though, made me into the woman my friends described me as?
Well, I could say that I’m just an amalgamation of my life experiences just like everyone else. However, I think what sets me apart from other people is that I have a deep, life long fascination with learning and growing.
This fascination is what I truly believe makes me who I am. It’s why I create with such a wide variety of art mediums. I long to experiment and explore as many artistic endeavors as I can. From this creative thinking and innovation bubble forth.
I’m extremely emotionally aware because I’m constantly surveying my thoughts and behaviors. I strive to deeply know myself, which is sought through the lens of psychology and philosophy. I’m sure this is why I’m said to be a ‘safe space’ for people. And why I aim to show up as my authentic self no matter what.
My insatiable thirst for knowledge drives me to want to share what I learn with others, which is why I became an educator and coach.
Learning makes me feel young and vivacious. It keeps me curious which in turn makes me a bit ambitious. I suppose the best way to sum myself up is that I’m an intellectual that loves helping people.
And yes, I really love otters.
“Imagine if Erykah Badu, Prince, and Ozzy Osborn had a love child… that’s Tiffany.”
